10            FUSE Development and Operations Teams

 

The success of the FUSE mission was rooted in the expertise of the development and operations teams.  The University of California Berkeley provided the MCP detectors.  The spectrographs were built and integrated by  the University of Colorado Boulder.  The French Space Agency (Centre National d'Etudes Spatiale, or CNES) provided the diffraction gratings for the spectrograph and assistance for science operations throughout the mission.  The Canadian Space Agency provided the two FES guide cameras for FUSE and science operations personnel.  The telescope mirrors and grating blanks were manufactured by Tinsley Associates. Swales Aerospace was responsible for the instrument thermal design, the instrument structure, the baffles, and the baffle doors. The JHU Applied Physics Laboratory provided the mirror mounts and actuators, the Instrument Data System, the instrument power distribution unit, mission systems engineering, and managed the spacecraft procurement. The spacecraft bus was provided by Orbital Sciences Corp., and the Mission Operations Team were from Honeywell Technical Services Inc. The Space Telescope Science Institute provided portions of the FUSE mission planning and data pipeline software, and hosts the FUSE science data archive at MAST. Overall management of the mission development, mission planning, science data processing, and operations of the FUSE satellite were conducted at Johns Hopkins University. Project oversight and technical support was provided by Goddard Space Flight Center.

10.1     Team List

The following table lists the people who participated in the development and operation of the FUSE mission, beginning with Phase C/D in 1995. Many of the people on this list served in many capacities, and the space available for a description of their roles does not do them justice. We have attempted to make this list complete, but we know that there must be some whom we have overlooked, and many more who labored behind the scenes. We apologize for any omissions, and we thank everyone for their help in making FUSE a success.
