Description

MSFC plans to use a competitive RFI process to obtain a spacecraft bus partner for a Small Explorer (SMEX) proposal submission. �The bus partner would provide a launch vehicle compatible spacecraft bus, and provide observatory integration and test services prior to delivery to the launch site. �The Dynamic Atmospheric Imaging Spectrograph Investigation (DAISI) is a small satellite observatory concept that consists of three x-ray imaging spectrographs in a Sun Synchronous dawn-dusk Earth Orbit.� The mission would probe the fundamental processes that occur before, during, and as a result of extreme space weather events, with a launch in 2027. �The bus partner would provide support for the proposal due no earlier than (NET) June 2022 at its own expense. �Subsequent funding would be predicated on the Heliophysics Small Explorer Mission�s proposal being selected for implementation. �MSFC will provide the in-house payload, and project management, project system engineering, and safety and mission assurance for the mission, along with contract management of the spacecraft bus.
