• The Flight Operations Team (FOT):• evaluates Terra’s health and safety, 24 hours a
day, 7 days a week,• performs 27-28 contacts thru TDRS daily• ensures that all the science data are downlinked
(99.05 % data capture)• maintains Terra’s orbit by doing maneuvers
25 Inclination Maneuvers 58 Drag Make Up Maneuvers
The instrument teams work with the FOT to manage the operation of the instruments.

As of May 11, 2009,
• Terra continues to perform very well
– Still operating on primary spacecraft components except for the Direct Access System (DB) Module (operating on redundant side)
– All the instruments are producing science data– Anomalies have been successfully
resolved/accommodated
• Terra has traveled approximately 1.54 billion miles (55289 orbits)

− Detectors declared non-operating in January 2009
− VNIR, TIR continue to produce science data
• CERES
− Instruments performing as expected, operating nominally since launch
− Expected to be able to fully support all science goals during the extended mission with a high probability of success.
• MISR
− Instrument has been performing superbly and reliably since launch
− Stability is maintained with bi-monthly activations of the on-board calibrator.

Description Status
Hex Bay Battery Anomaly• Cell 50 and multiple Heater Groups failed on
10/13/09
• Power is stable. • Capable of additional cell failures before impacting Nominal
Operations.• Limited Heater Control capabilities
SSR PWA Anomaly• 7 PWAs are currently offline as a result of
over-current protection.
• Re-allocated Buffers to maximize use.• Capable of losing a few more supersets before operations require
reducing science collection for MODIS and MISR. ASTER will reduce data collection if their buffer is effected.
• Recycle of Data Memory Unit likely to recover all failed supersets.
DAS Modulator Hardware Failure• EPC-1 Voltage not being regulated to 5 V on
5/29/08.• EPC-1 Current was decreasing as well.• Manually turned off DASM-1 on 6/1/08.
• DASM-1 EPC-1 failure occurred. • Switched to DAS Modulator Side 2 cross-strapped with Solid
State Power Amplifier Side 1 (SSPA-1) on 6/13/08• No additional DAS Modulator redundancy. Only remaining
redundancy in X-Band is limited to switch for SSPA-2.
SA Performance• Shunt #10 failed to transmit on 9/10/00.• Reduces maximum available Solar Array
Power by 1/24.
• Array continues to provide excess power for nominal operations. • Still operating array with 15-25o offset to minimize power
generation.• Capable of losing 2 more circuits before impacting Nominal
Operations• Degradation is less than originally expected.

Terra Hardware Anomalies (1 of 3)
Date Incident Cause Response
12/18/1999 Solar Array Blanket Box A-side Failed to indicate
Open during deployment.
Redundant side indicated open. Cause of failure unknown.
Able to deploy mast anyway. Blanket Box was separated. Telemetry failed to indicate so. Component is turned off and never planned to be used again.
1/4/2000 PMEA Load Resistor Box (LRB) Circuit 1B Failed
(1) LRB 1 or harness would require 2 failures to produce observed signature(2) PMEA 1 PWB has single wiring runs to and from LRB circuit relay and potential single point failure at plated through hole for relay pin
Evaluated EPC operational range. Determined nominal operations can exist at reduced load.
9/24/2000 Solar Array Shunt 10 failed
Cause Unknown. Unsuccessful in identifying a single cause of the anomaly and digging further will require addressing multiple failures.
Nominal operations was able to continue. Reviewed impact to propulsive maneuvers and continue to watch.
5/7/2001 MOPITT Displacer B failed
Cause Unknown. The compression wave created by the coolers moves the free floating displacer. This side of the compressor needs to continue operating for counterbalance. Operating at a reduced compression to provide some counterbalance but to prevent the free floating displacer from hitting it's stop causing so-called "Ringing Effect". The failed side does not provide valid science data.
6/15/2001 MODIS Power Supply 2 failed
Power Supply Shutdown caused by a thermal runaway condition in one of the two Down Regulator FETs. Suspect a High Energy Particle was the cause of the thermal runaway condition damaging the FET
Switched to Power Supply 1.
8/4/2001 MOPITT Chopper Motor 3 failed
The anomaly likely caused a fuse to blow resulting in a permanent failed chopper motor. Transistor Drive Circuit is likely cause.
This corrupts the science data on channels 5 & 6. Note: Channels 5-8 are the only channels which provided good science data since the Displacer B Anomaly. Fortunately, Chopper 3 stopped at an open or partially open position allowing data to be captured minimizing the impact to the science data.

Terra Hardware Anomalies (2 of 3)
Date Incident Cause Response
9/10/2002 MODIS Formatter A Timing Errors corrupting Science (Degraded Performance)
Formatter A has had a history of problems which resulted in processing errors. The likely cause of the Formatter Timing Errors is an incorrectly terminated clock signal. Fixed on Aqua.
9/10/02 MODIS Science data was effected. MODIS Formatter Swap to Side B was performed on 9/17/02. Since the switch, no Formatter Errors have been detected and the data quality is excellent.
5/6/2003 MODIS Solar Diffuser Screen Door Failed to Open
Areas investigated where: Spring problem, Disc skipped over the engagement pin, Screw pull-up due to door overdrive, Disc damage due to door overdrive, Pin damage due to door overdrive and Thermal stress damage which is the most likely cause.
No fix to anomaly has been determined. Instead, the MODIS Solar Diffuser Door was opened on July 2nd, 2003. The door will remain open indefinitely while keeping the Screen door closed. This allows some calibration activities to occur.
12/24/2003 MODIS NADIR Door Micro-Switch fails to indicate Opened
Faulty Switch Does not impact Science Data Collection.
11/22/2004 MODIS SRCA Lamp #2 Burnt Out
Burnt Out Using Spare: Lamps #1, 3 and 4
See Comment
SSR Print Wire Assembly (PWA) Over-Current Protection
Suspect Over-current protection falsely tripped during day/night transitions. Recycling the SSR Data Module Unit (DMU) is likely to reset PWAs and return functionality.
PWA-52, DMU-2 (Supersets 102 & 103) occurred on 7/30/03.PWA-26, DMU-1 (Supersets 50 & 51) occurred on 9/24/03.PWA-58, DMU-2 (Supersets 114 & 115) occurred on 9/25/03.PWA-22, DMU-1 (Supersets 42 & 43) occurred on 10/14/03.PWA-6, DMU-1 (Supersets 10 & 11) occurred on 7/31/04. PWA-28, DMU-1 (Supersets 54 & 55) occurred on 8/26/05.PWA-30, DMU-1 (Supersets 58 & 59) occurred on 4/19/07. PWA-14, DMU-1 (Supersets 26 & 27) occurred on 1/9/10. On 6/7/07, swapped DMUs to re-allocate buffers. Increased MODIS and MISR buffers and reduced ASTER Buffer.
3/1/2006 MODIS SRCA Lamp #3 Degraded
Degraded Terra SRCA lamp #3 has degraded significantly. Lamp #3 not to be used again. Terra SRCA lamp operation will follow Aqua SRCA lamp operation -- no 30W lamp configuration. Does not impact Science Data Collection.

Terra Hardware Anomalies (3 of 3)
Date Incident Cause Response
9/25/04 ASTER SWIR Detector Temperature Control degraded. Total loss of useable SWIR science data as of mid June 2008.
Degraded performance. Suspect temperature gradient within compressor.
ASTER SWIR Compressor unable to maintain ideal detector temperature which initially only impacted capturing bright scenes however, degraded to point of total loss of useable SWIR science data. Multiple attempts were made to restart the compressor with different control temperatures and/or stroke amplitude. Some had limited success, however, degradation continued until data declared unusable.
5/29/08 Direct Access System Modulator Side 1 (DASM)-1 EPC-1 failed.
Continuing to Investigate Attempt to power cycle on 6/4/08 was unsuccessful. On 6/13/08, Switched to DASM-2 cross-strapped with Up-Converter-1 and Solid State Power Amplifier-1. Continue with normal operations.
10/13/09 Hex Bay Battery Cell #50 failed and 4 of 9 battery heater groups failed
Investigation ongoing. Modified Charge Management and heater duty cycle to maintain temperatures.
