Candidates should have great interest in spacecraft simulation, enjoy working with software, and most of all, possess a great passion to contribute to our Nation’s exploration of space.
This work involves the development, testing, maintenance, and support of Visiting Vehicles Simulation and Training capabilities that meet Flight Operations Directorate (FOD) training requirements. Each spacecraft simulation is a Trick-based dynamic simulation of the Mobile Service System (MSS) containing Space Station Remote Manipulator System (SSRMS), Guidance, Navigation, and Control) GNC) for the International Space Station (ISS) and a specific visiting vehicle, and integrated orbital dynamics. The visiting vehicles supported are the new HII Transfer Vehicle (HTC)-X from Japan, the Cygnus vehicle from Northrop Grumman Corp. (NG), and the Dream Chaser (DC) vehicle from Sierra Nevada Corp. (SNC).
Individual will utilize the Common Visiting Vehicle (VV) Simulation (“VV Common Sim) that was adapted from the VV Dynamic Skills Trainers (DSTs) and Distributed Simulation (DIS) trainers. A DST is a standalone simulation that is used for flight controller (ground crew) training, flight crew training, and engineering analysis. The DIS trainers use the Trick simulation environment to provide a distributed ISS/VV simulation. Specifically, this task provides simulation development, enhancements, testing, maintenance, and support of the VV Common Sim, which provides the capabilities previously supplied by the individual DST and DIS VV simulation trainers. Support will include integration with Dynamic Onboard Ubiquitous Graphics (DOUG) or Enhanced DOUG Graphics for Engineering (EDGE). The ideal candidate has strong software skills and across multiple languages.
This work takes place in a highly stimulating environment and is critical in the human space exploration initiative.
