20、operating in or crossing Low Earth Orbit1 ScopeThis International Standard focuses on the post-mission disposal of spacecraft operating in, or crossing, Low Earth Orbit (LEO). The disposal of orbital launch stages operating in, or crossing, LEO is not dealt with in this International Standard.Post-m
21、ission disposal of an Earth-orbiting spacecraft broadly means removing the spacecraft from its operational orbit after the end of mission, manoeuvring it to a region of space where it is less likely to interfere or collide with other operational spacecraft or with orbital debris and passivating.For
22、a spacecraft operating in, or crossing LEO, there are six disposal options that might be used to ensure its compliance with orbital debris mitigation requirements (as stated in ISO 24113). In order of preference, these are the following:a) retrieving it and performing a controlled re-entry to recove
23、r it safely on the Earth;b) manoeuvring it in a controlled manner into a targeted re-entry with a well-defined impact footprint on the surface of the Earth to limit the possibility of human casualty;c) manoeuvring it in a controlled manner to an orbit that has a decay lifetime short enough to meet a
24、ll orbital debris mitigation requirements;d) augmenting its orbital decay by deploying a device so that the remaining orbital lifetime is short enough to meet all orbital debris mitigation requirements;e) allowing its orbit to decay naturally, given that all orbital debris mitigation requirements wi
25、ll be met without the need for a disposal manoeuvre or other action;f) manoeuvring it in a controlled manner to an orbit with a perigee altitude sufficiently above the LEO protected region (i.e. a graveyard orbit) that long-term perturbation forces do not cause it to re-enter the LEO protected regio
26、n within 100 years.This International Standard specifies requirements for the following:a) planning for disposal and passivation of spacecraft operating in LEO to ensure that final disposal is sufficiently characterized and that adequate propellant will be reserved for any propulsive manoeuvre requi
27、red,b) selecting a disposal orbit where the spacecraft will re-enter the Earths atmosphere within the next 25-years, or where the spacecraft will not re-enter the protected region within the next 100-years, andc) estimating, prior to launch, a 90 % or better probability of successfully executing the
28、 disposal manoeuvre.Techniques for planning and executing space hardware disposal are provided that reflect current internationally accepted guidelines and consider current operational procedures and best practices.2 Normative referencesThe following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively r

35、on, defined by ISO 24113 and indicated in Figure 1, is the volume within a shell that extends from the surface of a spherical Earth (with a radius of 6 378 km) up to an altitude (Z) of 2 000 km.2 ISO 2015 All rights reservedBS ISO 16164:2015ISO 16164:2015(E)Orbits in the LEO protected region tend to
36、 have a wide range of starting inclinations. In addition, due to the proximity of the Earth, orbits tend to be strongly perturbed, which cause their parameters to quickly change from the initial conditions. The combination of these two effects means that, while some orbits are more popular than othe
37、rs, any orbit within this volume can be populated.15 15 Z = 2 000 kmZ = ZGEOZGEO- 200 kmZGEO+ 200 km13432Key1 Earth2 equator3 LEO region4 GEO regionZ altitude measured with respect to a spherical Earth whose radius is 6 378 kmZGEOaltitude of the geostationary orbit with respect to a spherical Earth

39、uses define the primary requirements to be placed on the operator of the spacecraft.6.2 Ensuring execution of disposal actions6.2.1 To ensure that a disposal plan is sufficiently characterized and that adequate propellant is reserved for any propulsive manoeuvre required, an end of mission disposal
40、plan (EOMDP) shall be developed, maintained, and updated in all phases of a spacecraft mission.6.2.2 The EOMDP shall form part of the Space Debris Mitigation Plan (SDMP) for the mission. ISO 2015 All rights reserved 3BS ISO 16164:2015ISO 16164:2015(E)6.3 Priority in selection of a disposal option6.3
41、.1 The order of priority in choosing a spacecrafts disposal option is listed in ISO 24113:2011, 6.3.3.2. When selecting one of the six disposal options, i.e. a) to f), the decision shall be justified and documented in the EOMDP.NOTE A graveyard orbit is the least favourable option for disposing of a
42、 LEO spacecraft. The selection of a graveyard orbit is usually only attractive for LEO spacecraft in orbits whose perigee altitude is between 1 400 km and 2 000 km at end of mission. At lower perigee altitudes, disposal orbits with orbital lifetimes of less than 25 years would be more cost-effective
43、. Since missions with perigee altitudes between 1 400 km and 2 000 km are currently rare, the selection of this disposal option is infrequent.6.3.2 The EOMDP shall also include an estimate of the casualty risk posed by the uncontrolled re-entry of the spacecraft.6.3.3 If the casualty risk for uncont
44、rolled re-entry exceeds that specified by an approving agent, then either disposal option a) “retrieval and re-entry” or disposal option b) “targeted re-entry” or disposal option f) “moving to an orbit above the LEO protected region” shall be selected as the disposal method.6.3.4 Irrespective of whi
45、ch disposal option is selected during the design of the spacecraft, at end of mission, if disposal can be achieved through a more preferable option, that option shall be implemented.6.4 Post-mission lifetime6.4.1 If a spacecraft is placed into a disposal orbit with a perigee altitude below 2 000 km,
46、 for which atmospheric re-entry of the spacecraft is the eventual objective then, regardless of how it came to be in this orbit, the post-mission lifetime of this orbit shall be less than 25 years.This clarifies the meaning of ISO 24113:2011, 6.3.3.1 in which it states that a spacecraft operating in
47、 the LEO protected region, with either a permanent or periodic presence, shall limit its post-mission presence in the LEO protected region to a maximum of 25 years from the end of mission.NOTE The 25-year duration is an upper limit. It is preferable to reduce the decay phase duration to as small a t
48、ime period as possible.6.4.2 The consequence of a re-entering spacecraft impacting on the Earth can be controlled with ISO 27875.6.5 Time in graveyard orbit6.5.1 As specified in ISO 24113:2011, 6.3.3.2, if placed into a graveyard orbit, the spacecraft shall remain outside of, and not interfere with,
49、 the LEO protected region for a period of at least 100 years.6.5.2 When selecting disposal option f), a graveyard orbit, a long-term (at least 100-year) orbital perturbation analysis shall be conducted (and documented in the EOMDP) to ensure that the disposal orbit is not altered, particularly by solar and lunar gravitational forces, in such a way that the disposed spacecraft will enter the LEO or GEO protected regions within 100 years.6.6 Extendable antennas in graveyard orbitWhere possible, if a graveyard orbit has been selected,
