Scientific paper

The In-Space Propulsion Technology (ISPT) project, funded by NASA's Science Mission Directorate (SMD), is continuing to invest in propulsion technologies that will enable or enhance NASA robotic science missions by increasing performance while reducing mission cost, risk, and trip times. One of the technology areas of funding is systems analysis and mission design tools. These tools are necessary to increase awareness with the user community and to assist in the technology infusion. The primary tools investments include low-thrust trajectory tools such as MALTO and Mystic, generalized optimization tools such as Copernicus and OTIS, and an Aerocapture / Entry Vehicle design tool, the multidisciplinary tool for Systems Analysis of Planetary Entry, Descent, and Landing (SAPE). Tool demonstration, capabilities, and availability is presented.
