SIDAR Mission

  • SIDAR Program is 3 different projects
  • Continue measurement of the Sun’s Direct and Indirect Effects on Climate
  • Continue the operation of the Argos Data Collection System obtaining a

wide variety of data from platforms used for both environmental study and non-environmental uses

  • Continue the operation of the SAR instruments as part of the international

COSPAS-SARSAT system designed to detect and locate Emergency Locator Transmitters (ELTs), Emergency Position-Indicating Radio Beacons (EPIRBs) and Personal Locator Beacons (PLBs)

Program Status

  • SIDAR became a program with the FY 2015 appropriation
  • Included “$7.3M to support activities associated with accommodating TSIS-1

instrument on ISS and to maintain international partnerships related to SARSAT and A-DCS”

  • President’s FY 2016 budget
  • “Transfers TSIS-1 to NASA consistent with the Administration's decision to

move solar irradiance measurements to NASA”

  • “NOAA to plan the accommodation for A-DCS and SARSAT for launch”

TSIS Status

  • TIM and SSI sensors are in storage at Laboratory for

Atmospheric and Space Physics (LASP) at the University of Colorado.

  • TIM and SIM sensors successfully completed pre-ship review in December

2013

  • Total solar irradiance (TSI) calibration transfer experiment

(TCTE) operating on Air Force space test program satellite (STP- Sat3), collecting TSI data weekly.

  • TCTE measurements will be used to calibrate TSIS/ISS with SORCE

(operating since 2003) TSI measurements

  • Program accepted for integration on International Space Station

(ISS)

  • LASP is developing a thermal pointing system
  • Manifest candidate on SpaceX 15
  • Sep 2017 Launch Readiness Date (LRD)

Argos A-DCS and SARSAT

  • A-DCS supports global tracking and

environmental data collection applications

  • A-DCS heritage sensors fly on NOAA (POES), and

EUMETSAT (MetOp) satellites.

  • )
  • SARSAT collects distress beacon signals at the

satellite

  • SARSAT heritage sensors fly on NOAA (POES),

and EUMETSAT (MetOp) satellites.
