Constellation Program

Program Manager’s Status

Jeff Hanley, Program Manager2 October 2007

2July, 2007

Program Intro

♦ Program established in 2005 with Formulation Authorization Document complete in August 2006

♦ CxP is organized modeled on Apollo “5 box” structure

♦ CxP is hosted at JSC with participation and support from all Agency centers

♦ Aggressive tempo for standing up CxP with Projects, requirements definition, and procurements proceeding concurrently•

Includes establishing frameworks for content implementation •

Ares 1-X flight is scheduled for April ‘09

♦ CxP resources are constrained in the front end - drive focus on management of reserves, cash flow, and schedule

♦ Efforts to “close” the technical baseline and align margins between Orion and Ares elements underway

Current CxP Working Baseline

♦Supports the Nation’s Commitment to the Vision for Space Exploration•

Meets NASA Planning Guidance•

Represents a more mature program formulation based on SRR completed in November 2006

•

Meets the objective of 65% Confidence Level for a March 2015 IOC−

Supports a FY 2013 Initial Operational Capability (IOC) and Full

Operational Capability (FOC) in FY 2014

•

Includes a robust test plan with two human test flights prior to

FOC•

Begins Constellation Lunar Phase development in 2011 to accomplish Human Lunar Return (HLR) as soon as possible−

Human Lunar Return –

June 2019 (internal plan)−

Reserves to support Agency HLR commitment of December 2020 @ 65% CL

•

Has significant program threats relative to program reserves•

Has minimal reserves through FY 2010
