Publisher note: JUNO System: • The Core Contract, constitutes a JUNO solution, envisioned as an Electro-Optical imaging satellite that the Supplier shall operate. To deliver the system, a full end-to-end solution, with adequate pan-Defence Lines of Development (DLOD) coverage, is required including inter alia; design, development, manufacture, assembly, integration, test, launch, commissioning, operations and, support to experimentation.. • Secondary Payload Options, constitutes the same JUNO solution with additional satellite payload opportunities that consider at least one of the following: o Application of the Primary Electro-Optical Imaging Payload to Space Domain Awareness (SDA) collection taskings, such that the EO imager can be used for non-Earth pointing image collection tasks, whilst always maintaining primary payload integrity. o Space Domain Awareness (SDA) hosted payloads, where additional sensors that provide SDA mission data could be incorporated onto the space-craft to enable the Juno satellite to conduct a multi-mission approach to data collection from space. o RF Inter-satellite Links to GEO, where the Juno Core Contract solution is enhanced by the ability to link to the satellite via agreed Geostationary Orbit space based assets, to support Out Of Area satellite command and control, and payload data handling. o On-Board Processing (OBP), providing enhanced high fidelity on-board image processing, with target oriented machine learning image exploitation, enabling in-situ processing of captured imagery, prior to image downlinking to the agreed ground station network. • Maintained Operations Option, constitutes a time extension of the period where the Supplier operates the JUNO solution from the Core Contract and completes mission operations beyond the timeframe covered in the Core Contract. • Concurrent Ground Segment Options, constitutes the same JUNO solution from the Core Contract but with the system integrated with the elements of the ISTARI MOD ground architecture that are sufficiently mature to be utilised together. During this phase, operation of the JUNO system will be by the Supplier until the ISTARI MOD ground architecture is capable of operating the system. Integration between the JUNO system and elements of ISTARI will occur within these phases with gradual, progressive functional transitions. The Supplier shall also support the transition through provision of Training to MOD. • Support to MOD Operation Option, constitutes the same JUNO solution from the Core Contract, but that is fully integrated with the MOD’s ISTARI ground architecture and is operated by the MOD with support from the Supplier. • Disposal Option, Disposal of the JUNO solution from the Core Contract at End of Life.
