DETUMBLE: This initial firing of attitude control thrusters occurred after solar panel deployment after successful application of the yo-yo despin mechanism.This thruster activity placed NEAR in a stable attitude as it began its nearly 3-year journey to (433) Eros. After launch, flyby of (253) Mathilde was predicted for June 27, 1997 UTC 15:12:56 at 869,580 km.
MODMP-1: The initial active angular momentum dump utilized small attitude control thrusters to reduce NEAR's angular momentum from 2.4 Nms to 0.4 Nms. For heliocentric cruise, NEAR reduces or "dumps" angular momentum by utilizing solar radiation pressure and precise off-Sun pointing .
TCM-1: Trajectory correction maneuver #1 removed targeting errors introduced by the Delta II launch vehicle. After TCM-1, flyby of (253) Mathilde was set for June 27, 1997 UTC 14:00:27 at 81,938 km. TCM-1 provided data leading to an onboard spacecraft flight code upgrade in August 1996.
TCM2: Trajectory correction maneuver #2 served as clean-up maneuver for TCM-1. TCM-2 was performed with flight computer software version 1.09. After TCM-2, flyby of (253) Mathilde was set for June 27, 1997 UTC 12:55:50 at 2,440 km.
TCM3&4: Trajectory correction maneuvers #3 and #4 served as clean-up maneuvers for TCM-2. TCM-3 was the first TCM performed with flight computer software version 1.10. After TCM-4, flyby of (253) Mathilde was set for June 27, 1997 UTC 12:56:47.9 at 1,032 km.
TCM5: Trajectory correction maneuver #5 provided final targeting for the Mathilde flyby. After TCM-5, flyby of (253) Mathilde was set for June 27, 1997 UTC 12:55:55.4 at 1,212 km (ground observations and optical navigation included).
TCM6: TCM-6 was cancelled due to determination that potential improvement of Mathilde close approach conditions was minimal.
TCM7: Trajectory correction maneuver #7 (98% of the deep space maneuver) represented the first in-flight use of NEAR's Large Velocity Adjust (LVA) thruster. Performance was exceptional as the maneuver targeted NEAR for Earth swingby.
TCM8: Trajectory correction maneuver #8 (2% of the deep space maneuver) completed the deterministic Earth swingby targeting. After TCM-8, Earth swingby was set for January 23, 1998 UTC 07:27:35.5 at 532 km altitude.
TCM9: Trajectory correction maneuver #9 refined Earth swingby targeting. After TCM-9, Earth swingby was set for January 23, 1998 UTC 07:22:52.5 at 530 km altitude.
TCM10: Trajectory correction maneuver #10 completed Earth swingby targeting. After TCM-10, Earth swingby was set for January 23, 1998 UTC 07:22:56.6 at 540 km altitude.
TCM12: Trajectory correction maneuver #12 corrected Earth swingby targeting and adjusted for updates in Eros rendezvous.
TCM15: Trajectory correction maneuver #15 refined Eros targeting and tested a new simultaneous momentum dump strategy. After TCM-15, Eros flyby (if no rendezvous maneuvers occurred) was set for Dec. 23, 1998 UTC 18:04:10 at B*T=1083.266 km & B*R=-333.545 km.
TCM16: Trajectory correction maneuver #16 aborted 0.2 seconds (0.19 m/sec) after a successful 200-second fuel settling burn (3.99 m/sec). After the abort another 92.12 m/sec of hydrazine (fuel) was used as the spacecraft recovered, leading to Eros flyby Dec. 23, 1998 at UTC 18:42:27 at 3,827 km and 0.9648 km/sec.
TCM17: Trajectory correction maneuver #17, or Deep Space Maneuver 2, effectively combined the first two (missed) rendezvous maneuvers. This maneuver helps the NEAR spacecraft to gradually "catch up" with Eros by mid-February 2000..
TCM18: Trajectory correction maneuver #18 is the first of two maneuvers designed to correct the effect of errors from TCM-17.
TCM19: Trajectory correction maneuver #19 is the second of two maneuvers designed to correct the effect of errors from TCM-17.
TCM20: Trajectory correction maneuver #20 was a TCM-19 correction designed to save about 2 m/sec for the February 2, 2000 rendezvous maneuver. Large errors in this very small maneuver are currently being investigated.
TCM21: Trajectory correction maneuver #21 was a TCM-20 correction designed to save about 0.5 m/sec for the February 2, 2000 rendezvous maneuver. After TCM-21, the spacecraft was targeted to fly by Eros on February 8, 2000 UTC 14:49:41 at B*T = 151.285 km & B*R = -19.379 km.
TCM22: Trajectory correction maneuver #22 was part 1 of the recovery for the postponed February 2, 2000 rendezvous maneuver. After TCM-22, the spacecraft was targeted to fly by Eros on February 15, 2000 UTC 13:04:08 at B*T = 183.7 km & B*R = -92.7 km.
TCM23: Trajectory correction maneuver #23 was part 2 of the recovery for the postponed February 2, 2000 rendezvous maneuver. After TCM-23, the spacecraft was targeted to fly by Eros on February 14, 2000 UTC 07:58:48 at B*T = 176.02 km & B*R = -46.49 km.
OIM: Eros Orbit Insertion Maneuver (OIM) placed the NEAR spacecraft into a 321 by 366 km (333 by 450 km planned) orbit around asteroid Eros.
OCM-1: Orbit Correction Maneuver-1 (OCM-1) targeted NEAR for a 204 km (200 km planned) periapsis distance on March 3, 2000.
OCM-2: Orbit Correction Maneuver-2 (OCM-2) placed NEAR into a 205 km (205 by 200 km planned) circular orbit on March 3, 2000.
OCM-3: Orbit Correction Maneuver-3 (OCM-3) placed NEAR into a 209 by 101 km (209 by 100 km planned) transfer orbit on April 1, 2000.
OCM-4: Orbit Correction Maneuver-4 (OCM-4) circularized NEAR's orbit at 100 km (100 km planned) from Eros' center on April 11, 2000.
OCM-5: Orbit Correction Maneuver-5 (OCM-5) placed NEAR into a 101 by 50 km (101 by 50 km planned) transfer orbit on April 22, 2000.
OCM-6: Orbit Correction Maneuver-6 (OCM-6) placed NEAR into a 52 by 49 km 89.6-deg inclination (51 by 49 km 90.0-deg inclination planned) orbit on April 30, 2000.
OCM-7: Orbit Correction Maneuver-7 (OCM-7) placed NEAR into a 50 by 35 km 90-deg inclination (50 by 35 km 90-deg inclination planned) orbit on July 7, 2000. OCM-7 was the most accurate (in velocity change) maneuver ever performed by a spacecraft beyond Earth orbit.
OCM-8: Orbit Correction Maneuver-8 (OCM-8) placed NEAR into a 39 by 34 km 90-deg inclination (37 by 35 km 90-deg inclination planned) orbit on July 14, 2000.
