Abstract

Within the SpaceTracks project, a Launch Coordination Center (LCC) prototype is currently being developed by the German Aerospace Center (DLR). The aim of the LCC is to support the coordination among stakeholders of launches and re-entries before, during, and after the operation. Thereby, interests and needs of all stakeholders should be balanced and the situational awareness should be increased. At the core of the LCC is the SpaceTracks Suite (STS) microservice architecture.

When developing software solutions to integrate spacecraft into European airspace, various aspects must be considered: different space flight characteristics, the complex air traffic system and other concept requirements like security, scalability, flexibility, resilience and arbitrarily expandability, hence an agile procedure model and a loosely coupled and flexible software design is favored. This paper describes the DLR current approach, design considerations and solution characteristics of the STS.

通过加强与 SpaceTracks Suite 微服务架构的协调，改善航空和航天安全

在 SpaceTracks 项目中，德国航空航天中心（DLR）目前正在开发一个发射协调中心（LCC）原型。发射协调中心的目的是支持发射和再入大气层的利益相关者在操作前、操作中和操作后进行协调。因此，应平衡所有利益相关者的利益和需求，并提高对态势的认识。在开发将航天器集成到欧洲空域的软件解决方案时，必须考虑各个方面：不同的太空飞行特性、复杂的空中交通系统和其他概念要求，如安全性、可扩展性、灵活性、弹性和任意扩展性，因此，敏捷程序模型和松散耦合、灵活的软件设计受到青睐。本文介绍了德国航天中心目前采用的方法、设计考虑因素以及 STS 的解决方案特点。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
