This document provides a framework to assess, reduce and control the potential risks that spacecraft and launch vehicle orbital stages (referred to hereinafter as “space vehicles”) pose to people and the environment when those space vehicles re-enter the Earth's atmosphere and impact the Earth’s surface. It applies to the planning, design and review of space vehicle missions for which controlled or uncontrolled re-entry is inevitable. This document applies to the following objects when assessing their risk to the ground: objects re-entering from orbit; launch vehicles (including payloads, other objects separated during the ascent phase, etc.) that are mentioned in flight safety activities under ISO 14620-2:2019[1], 6.2; interplanetary spacecraft returning to Earth. This document does not apply to systems with wings and control functions intended for targeted landing. This document assumes that the main specifications and operational procedures for ensuring safety on the ground against the re-entry of spacecraft containing radioactive material have already been determined in the mission requirements definition stage, system definition stage, operational concept definition stage, etc. Therefore, apart from matters related to re-entry safety, the main parts of the mission design and operational concept of spacecraft containing radioactive material are outside the scope of this standard.

This document provides test methods and test requirements for design either qualification or acceptance, or both of small spacecraft or units. It provides the minimum test requirements and test methods to qualify the design and manufacturing methods of commercial small spacecraft and their units and to accept the final products. This document is applicable to satellites whose development methods are different from the ones used for traditional satellites that have little room for risk tolerance. The scope of this document encompasses different categories of small spacecraft, so-called mini-, micro-, nano-, pico- and femto spacecraft. This document includes CubeSat, as long as it is developed with the untraditional processes. This document does not cover satellite deployment mechanisms, such as picosatellite orbital deployer (POD), as the verification requirements are defined in the interface control document (ICD) with the launcher, such as ISO 26869[1]. This document does not cover software testing, although some tests such as functional test, mission test and end-to-end test are inherently used to test the software installed in the hardware being tested. General requirements and processes of satellite software testing can be found in various references, such as ECSS-E-ST40[2]. This document does not cover requirements regarding safety nor debris mitigation. Appropriate documents such as ISO 14620-1[3] or ISO 24113[4] can be referred to. Other common requirements for small spacecraft can be found in ISO 20991[5].

The scope of the present document is to provide the elements needed for elaborating the programme execution logic and drafting the execution plan for the realization of a product.
NOTE 1   In this document, the term “logic” alone is sometimes used for “execution logic”.
NOTE 2   In this document, the term “product” is used to designate the object of the program concerned, and the term “system” is used to designate the product for anything related to system engineering.
NOTE 3   The product is also considered a “system-of-interest” and its enabling systems are also taken into account.
The execution logic and plan enable customers/suppliers to reach an agreement on how their respective processes and activities can be organized.
The aim is to enable each actor in the programme to manage their activities with sufficient visibility of the sequencing of the other stakeholdersʼ activities.
This document belongs to the documents supporting EN 9200 relating to the programme management specification.
The present document describes the principles of programme execution logic and defines the corresponding management requirements. This description is supplemented:
—   on the one hand, in terms of execution logic principles, by:
—   the challenges of a basic logic common to all actors (synchronization);
—   the applicable criteria to set up this basic logic;
—   the translation of this logic into the programme processes;
—   on the other hand, in terms of implementing the execution logic, by:
—   the procedures for practical implementation of the management requirements defined in EN 9200;
—   adaptations of the logic according to the various constraints and specificities of the programme, and justification of these adaptations;
—   the consistency between the basic logic at system level and the logics at subsystem and constituent levels.
The breakdown of clauses as used in this document gives a gradual understanding of the approach to be adopted to construct an execution logic. For instance:
—   Clause 5 presents the end-purpose of a programme execution logic as well as the associated basic concepts and the constituents of this logic;
—   Clause 6 describes and characterizes the process for building the logic;
—   Clause 7 concerns change control to the execution logic;
—   Clause 8 concentrates on the importance of capitalization and lessons learned.
This document applies to aeronautical, space and defence programmes. The principles can be extended to other areas of activity.
It applies to realization of a single product, of several samples or of a series. It applies to any customer/supplier level, while ensuring consistency between successive levels.
The principles described concern all programme actors, from initial expression of need through to closure of the programme.

This document defines the CCSDS and International Organization for Standardization (ISO) Reference Model for an Open Archival Information System (OAIS). An OAIS is an Archive system consisting of hardware, software, information, and policy-based processes and procedures put in place and operated by an organization and its staff. The organization has accepted the responsibility to preserve information and make it available for a Designated Community. The organization may be part of a larger organization. The system meets a set of mandatory responsibilities that allow an OAIS Archive to be distinguished from other uses of the term ‘archive’. The set of mandatory responsibilities an OAIS Archive must perform are defined in  REF _Ref511638039 \r \h 3.2 08D0C9EA79F9BACE118C8200AA004BA90B02000000080000000E0000005F005200650066003500310031003600330038003000330039000000 . The term ‘Open’ in OAIS is used to imply that this Recommended Practice, as well as future related Recommended Practices and standards, are developed in open forums, and it does not imply that access to the Archive is unrestricted. The information being maintained has been deemed to need Long Term Preservation, even if the OAIS itself is not permanent. Long Term is long enough to be concerned with the impacts of changing technologies, as well as support for new media and data formats, or with a changing Knowledge Base of the Designated Community or changes within the Designated Community or its definition. Long Term may extend indefinitely. In this Reference Model there is a particular focus on digital information, both as the primary forms of information held and as supporting information for both digitally and physically preserved materials. Therefore, the model accommodates information that is inherently non-digital (e.g., a physical sample), but the modelling and preservation of such information is not addressed in detail. This Reference Model:
– provides a framework for the understanding and increased awareness of archival concepts needed for Long Term digital information preservation and access;
– provides the concepts needed by non-archival organizations to be effective participants in the preservation process;
– provides a framework, including terminology and concepts, for describing and comparing architectures and operations of existing and future Archives;
– provides a framework for describing and comparing different Long Term Preservation strategies and techniques;
– provides a basis for comparing the data models of digital information preserved by Archives and for discussing how the data models and the underlying information may change over time;
– provides a framework that may be expanded by other efforts to cover Long Term Preservation of information that is NOT in digital form (e.g., physical media and physical samples);
– expands consensus on the elements and processes for Long Term digital information preservation and access, and promotes a larger market which vendors can support;
– guides the identification and production of OAIS-related standards.
The reference model addresses a full range of archival information preservation functions including ingest, archival storage, data management, access, and dissemination. It also addresses the migration of digital information to new media and forms, the information models used to represent the information, the role of software in information preservation, and the exchange of digital information among Archives. It identifies both internal and external interfaces to the Archive functions, and it identifies a number of high-level services at these interfaces. It provides various illustrative examples and some ‘best practice’ recommendations. It defines a minimal set of responsibilities for an Archive to be called an OAIS, and it also defines a maximal Archive to provide a broad set of useful terms and concepts.

It is primarily intended to support the accreditation of bodies providing such certification. ISO/IEC 17021-1 provides the bulk of the requirements on bodies offering audit and certification for general types of management systems. However, for each specific type of system, specific additional requirements will be needed, for example, to specify the standard against which the audit is to be made and the qualifications which auditors require. This document provides the (small number of) specific additions required for bodies providing audit and certification of candidate trustworthy digital repositories. Trustworthy here means that they can be trusted to maintain, over the long-term, the understandability and usability of digitally encoded information placed into their safekeeping.

ABSTRACT
This specification establishes the requirements for parts intended for aerospace use and machined from polychlorotrifluoroethylene (PCTFE) homopolymers. This specification, however, does not cover parts machined from PCTFE copolymer, PCTFE film or tape, or modified PCTFE. Material covered by this specification is on four types, differentiated based on intended uses and exposures: Types I (high service pressure) and II (low service pressure) for use in air and oxygen media, Type II for use in inert and reactive media, and Type IV for use in other media. The parts shall be manufactured from virgin, unplasticized, pure PCTFE homopolymer, and the use of recycled polymer or regrind shall be prohibited. The base material shall be free of defects and contaminants. The finished parts shall be white or gray in color with a natural translucent appearance, and shall be free of voids, scratches, fissures, inclusions, or entrapped air bubbles. Tests for specific gravity, melting point, tensile strength and elongation, deformation under load, zero strength time, mechanical impact (in ambient liquid oxygen and pressurized liquid and gaseous oxygen environments), and dimensional stability shall be performed and shall conform to the requirements specified.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification is intended to be a means of calling out finished machined parts ready for aerospace use. Such parts may also find use in selected commercial applications where there are clear benefits derived from the use of parts with high molecular weight, good molecular weight retention during processing, dimensional stability, controlled crystallinity, and tightly controlled engineering tolerances.  
1.2 This specification establishes requirements for parts machined from virgin, unplasticized, 100 % polychlorotrifluoroethylene (PCTFE) homopolymers.  
1.3 This specification does not cover parts machined from PCTFE copolymers, PCTFE film or tape less than 0.25-mm (0.010-in.) thick, or modified PCTFE (containing pigments or plasticizers).  
1.4 This specification does not allow parts containing recycled material.  
1.5 The specification does not cover PCTFE parts intended for general use applications, in which control of dimensional stability, molecular weight, and crystallinity are not as important. For machined PCTFE parts intended for general use, use Specification D7211.  
1.6 This specification classifies parts into three classes based upon intended uses and exposures: oxygen-containing media, reactive media, and inert media.  
1.7 Application—PCTFE components covered by this specification are virgin, 100 % PCTFE resin, free of plasticizers and other additives. The components are combustion resistant in oxygen, dimensionally stable, and meet other specific physical characteristics appropriate for their end use. They are used in valves, regulators, and other devices in oxygen, air, helium, nitrogen, hydrogen, ammonia, and other aerospace media systems. The components typically are used as valve seats, o-rings, seals, and gaskets. They are removed and replaced during normal maintenance procedures. The components provide reliable sealing surfaces resulting in proper closure of valves and related devices and no leakage from the system into the environment. They will experience static mechanical loading, cyclic mechanical loading, temperatures ranging from cryogenic to 71°C (160°F), and pressures up to 68.9 MPa (10,000, psig) for oxygen and air media, and 103.4 MPa (15,000 psig) for inert media.  
1.8 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. The values in parentheses are for information only.  
1.9 The following precautionary caveat pertains only to the test methods portion, Section 13, of this specification: This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental pra...
