GAJAT A Rapid Prototyping Mission Architecture Tool with Embedded CostingGAJAT is a Near Earth Mission Architecture (NEMA) Rapid Prototyping Analysis Tool. It Was designed to be operated by a single systems engineer to replicate the mission design output of JPL's Team X. GAJAT provides estimates for: (1) The overall design of an observatory with a defined payload [instrument(s)] (2) The spacecraft consumable resources required to support the mission over its specified operational period (3) The minimum launch vehicle capability requirement (4) The Ground Segment Requirements, and (5) The cost for developing and launching the observatory (mission development cost) and the cost to operate the system over the specified operational period (mission operations cost), the sum of these two being the total mission cost.
