CxP 70000 (REV. B), CONSTELLATION ARCHITECTURE REQUIREMENTS DOCUMENT (CARD) (13 FEB 2008). The Constellation Architecture Requirements Document (CARD) defines requirements controlled by the Constellation Program for the hardware, software, facilities, personnel and services needed to perform the Design Reference Missions (DRMs). The Constellation Architecture is comprised of a human-rated Crew Exploration Vehicle (CEV) and Lunar Surface Access Module (LSAM), the Mars Transfer Vehicle (MTV), the Descent Ascent Vehicle (DAV), a human-rated Crew Launch Vehicle (CLV), a Cargo Launch Vehicle (CaLV) which includes the Earth Departure Stage (EDS), Ground Systems, Missions Systems, and future Destination Surface systems, such as the habitats, power systems, rovers, science equipment, robotic systems and resource utilization systems that enable the crewmembers to live, work and explore the surface of other worlds. The architecture also includes necessary interfaces to external entities including International Space Station (ISS), international partners, and communications and tracking infrastructure.

CxP 70007 (REV. B, CHANGE 001), CONSTELLATION DESIGN REFERENCE MISSIONS AND OPERATIONAL CONCEPTS (7 JAN 2008)., The document encompasses the top level mission scenarios and operational concepts. Project-level Operational Concepts documents provide the next level of detail envisioned for each System. The scope of this document represents the integrated stakeholder expectations and common vision for the Constellation Program Systems. The document is divided into five sections. The System Overview describes the numerous vehicles and organizations that define the Constellation Architecture. This is a summary of top-level information and is contained in numerous Constellation products. The following section describes the Design Reference Missions (DRMs). Next, a General section provides overarching concepts that span multiple phases or that are not specific to any phase, but are to be considered when developing requirements and determining effective design solutions. Next, beginning with expectations for pre-ship build and checkout of the flight vehicles through recovery and refurbishment, the concepts for nominal Operations and Capabilities by Phase, including the role of the operations systems are documented. Lastly, the operational concepts that describe all contingency scenarios that are intended to be captured in requirements for mitigation are presented. There are three Annexes to this document which contain additional detail about communications and timelines for the DRMs. Annex 1 is the Joint Constellation (Cx) – Space Communications and Navigation (SCaN) Concept of Operations. It contains a view of the communications, tracking, and network operations that will support the DRMs. Annex 2 is the Cx Flight Operations Scenarios and includes DRM timelines and ground rules. Annex 3 is the Ground Summary Timeline.

CxP 70022-01 (BASELINE), CONSTELLATION PROGRAM COMMAND, CONTROL, COMMUNICATION, AND INFORMATION (C3I) INTEROPERABILITY STANDARDS BOOK, VOL.1: INTEROPERABILITY SPECIFICATION (18 DEC 2006). The Command, Control, Communications and Information (C3I) ARCHITECTURE provides the functional and performance requirements necessary to implement Constellation’s interoperable Command, Control, Communication, and Information (C3I) vision. This specification states how Constellation SYSTEMS must interface to ensure command and control interoperability between SYSTEMS. This specification also provides a definition of interoperability requirements between Constellation SYSTEMS and other external SYSTEMS, such as the Space Network and other various communications and tracking networks. The Command, Control, Communications and Information (C3I) ARCHITECTURE intends to provide interoperable information systems focused on the support of Constellation missions. C3I encompasses the technologies of communications, distributed information systems, command and control, decision support, and information operations and includes technology exchange, collaborative development, analysis and evaluation through systems development. This specification includes the requirements to ensure interoperability between Constellation SYSTEMS for command, control, communications, and information. The following sections define these terms and thus the scope of the specification. The CxP 70072 Management Systems Plan, Annex 02 - Doc, Spec, Product Trees provides the Constellation Program Requirements Document Tree that shows the location of this specification relative to other requirements documents.

CxP 70024 (BASELINE), CONSTELLATION PROGRAM HUMAN-SYSTEMS INTEGRATION REQUIREMENTS (15 DEC 2006). The Human-Systems Integration Requirements (HSIR) in this document drive the design of space vehicles, their systems and equipment with which humans interface in the Constellation Program. These requirements ensure that the design of Constellation vehicles is centered around the needs, capabilities and limitations of the human. These requirements embody the collective experience of NASA in operation of human spacecraft from Project Mercury to the International Space Station, and were derived from NASA-STD- 3000, Volume I, Man-Systems Integration Standards, Revision B, 1995; JSC 26882, Space Flight Health Requirements; MIL-STD-1472F, Department of Defense Design Criteria Standard; Federal Aviation Administration Human Factors Design Standard (HF-STD-001) and other sources.
