Radiological Consequence Evaluation for Dragonfly Mission
- Boston Government Services, Oak Ridge, TN (United States)
The scoping calculations presented in this report were developed to provide a conservative estimate of radiological dose consequences associated with launch accidents involving one multi-mission radioisotope thermoelectric generator (MMRTG) and possibly up to 43 light-weight radioisotope heater units (LWRHUs) for the upcoming National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Dragonfly mission. This report summarizes dose consequence analysis from SAND2019-11148, “Nuclear Risk Assessment 2019 Update for the Mars 2020 Mission Environmental Impact Statement,” referred to in this document as the Mars 2020 nuclear risk analysis (NRA) and compares those results to a parametric analysis used to analyze potential dose consequences for the Dragonfly mission.
