Ariel, as the fourth medium-class mission (M4) in the ESA Cosmic Vision Plan, following Solar Orbiter (M1), Euclid (M2) and Plato (M3) is planned for launch in 2029. Its mission aims at determining the chemical composition and physical conditions of the atmosphere for a set of exoplanets and encompasses a duration for a first phase of 6 months for the transit up to the Halo orbit at L2 position, the cooldown and the commissioning, and an operational phase of 3.5 years. An extended mission lifetime of 2 years is also considered. In this framework, the objective of the present procurement is the selection of the contractor for the Ariel Sun Sensors in accordance with the principles of “ESA Best Practices for the Selection of Subcontractors by Prime Contractors in the frame of ESA-s Major Procurements” (reference ESA BEST PRACTICES IPC(2012)65, rev.2)ESA Best Practices. The Sun Sensor is a sensor which is capable of measuring the solar aspect angle in two axis directions accurately in the whole of its FOV. For ARIEL, the Sun Sensor is a critical piece of equipment, and three Sun sensors will be mounted to give redundancy over the expected Sun direction. In particular, each Sun sensor shall provide: - A wide FoV of at least 60° to 70° on each axis - A performance of better than 0.3° 3s over the whole field of view (on-board calibration tables allowed) The scope of this procurement covers the design, development, manufacture, assembly, integration, verification, qualification and delivery of the Sun Sensor for the ARIEL S/C.Read more
