2、procedures. This required the facilities of the Telecommunications Development Laboratory (TDL), but it had been shut down after Voyager launch.Projects should plan to keep development facilities functional after launch to permit inflight troubleshooting, else they should have a plan in place to qui
3、ckly reactivate critical facilities. Description of Driving Event: The Telecommunications Development Laboratory (TDL) shut down after Voyager launch, upon termination of that projects funding. Galileo planned to fund its TDL support at a later date.The Voyager inflight receiver failures required ra
4、pid development of operational workaround procedures to accomplish the Jupiter encounter with one spacecraft receiver with limited capability. Reactivation of TDL to a usable state took more than six months because personnel had to be reassigned and equipment had to be retrieved, repaired, and calib

6、S-,-,-1. Projects should plan to keep development facilities functional after launch to a level necessary to accomplish inflight troubleshooting.2. If, for funding reasons, it is necessary to shut down project development facilities after launch, the project should develop a plan with the requisite
