The SuperCam Instrument Suite on the NASA Mars 2020 Rover: Body Unit and Combined System Tests

Roger C. Wiens, +131 more
TL;DR: The SuperCam body unit (BU) of the Mars 2020 rover as mentioned in this paper was designed to receive light from the mast unit via a 5.8 m opti-cal fiber and the light is split into three wavelength bands by a demultiplexer, and routed via fiber bundles to three optical spectrometers, two of which (UV and violet; 245-340 and 385-465 nm) are crossed Czerny-Turner reflection spectrometer, nearly identical to their counterparts on ChemCam.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Model-based Systems Engineering Efficiencies

TL;DR: In this article , the authors discuss three Mars missions (Mars Science Laboratory, Mars 2020, and Mars Sample Retrieval Lander) and apply MBSE techniques to improve the efficiency of the iterative Mars project flight system design process through decomposition of the flight system into functional designs.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Making or Breaking a Rover- Systems Engineering Parameters On-Board the Mars 2020 Perseverance Rover

TL;DR: Eight parameter-management topics for the Perseverance Mission are discussed, including how to better manage parameters for the continued surface operations of the Mars 2020 mission and future missions, and the use of open-source management tools.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Mars Project Software Systems Engineering Improvements

TL;DR: In this paper , an assessment of software systems engineering processes, specifically in the NASA Mars Science Laboratory Curiosity Rover, Mars 2020 Perseverance Rover, and the planned Mars Sample Retrieval Lander, is presented.
