2. Telemetry

3. Point

4. Capture

5. Downlink

6. Evaluate

Step 1: Check subsystem health and initialize the spacecraft.

Experiment A — TTC Failure

Loss of radio link; telemetry and downlink unavailable.

Experiment B — ADCS Failure

Attitude pointing fails; payload imaging inhibited.

Experiment C — Payload Failure

Imaging instrument cannot capture a scene.

Experiment D — EPS Failure

Low bus voltage and battery; automatic Safe Mode.

MISSION / EXPERIMENT EVALUATION

Complete the six guided steps. Each action and injected fault produces a PASS/FAIL result and an engineering decision.

RESULT: NOT EVALUATED

ENGINEERING DECISION: Awaiting first test. Verify telemetry and subsystem health before commanding the payload.
