Comprehensive Success Criteria

For a completely successful mission the following must be achieved:

1. The experiment must remain in orbit for at least 1.5 years.
2. The telemetry must provide noise-free data for at least 90% of the time spent in orbit.
3. The pointing system must work to within the specs given above.
4. The payload door and solar panels must function properly so as not to interfere with the optical path of the experiment.
5. The spacecraft attitude must be determined to within .
6. The CCD camera, data buffer and experiment data interface must function properly to provide spectra of the targets.
7. At least seconds of useful data must be obtained.
