Spacecraft/Sea
Launch system interface
control
document
The spacecraft/Sea Launch system interface control document defines all
spacecraft and spacecraft ground support equipment to Sea Launch environmental,
orbital, and operational interfaces. It also contains the mission-unique
facility interfaces. (Standard facility interfaces are described
in the Sea Launch facilities handbook for customers.)
The generic interface control document template will be modified and
expanded to define the needs and accommodations of the specific mission,
thus creating a mission-specific interface control document.
Spacecraft verification
matrix
A spacecraft verification matrix defines the process by which the interface
control document requirements and functions are verified prior to
and during launch processing. The matrix is included in the interface
control document.
Sea Launch facilities
handbook for
customers
The facilities handbook for customers describes those portions of the Sea
Launch Home Port, payload processing facility, assembly and command
ship, and launch platform used by the customer during spacecraft processing
and launch operations.
Any modifications made to standard facility interfaces will be included in
the mission specific spacecraft/Sea Launch system interface control
document.
