Autonomous rendezvous and capture (AR&C) is a critical space technology with significant application to a variety of missions. Martin Marietta Astronautics Group (MMAG) has been developing AR&C technical capability in support of several recent NASA contracts. The use of AR&C for the Mars Rover/Sample Return (MRSR) mission was studied through a contract with JSC. Incorporation of AR&C in the Space Transportation Vehicle (STV) lunar mission was studied through a contract with MSFC. The MMAG has also been developing AR&C simulation capability under independent research and development studies. Simulation development was driven by two goals: comprehensive software simulation of the autonomous rendezvous and capture mission from launch to final capture; and integration of the overall software and hardware simulation to support an AR&C flight demonstration. This presentation will highlight the AR&C software simulation tools and analyze results from their application to the STV lunar mission. Plans for an integrated software and hardware simulation will also be summarized.
