<br>
       I would like to inform you about an ongoing work for "International Deep Space Interoperability Standards" to support the future Deep Space Gateway (DSG)..</span>
<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><br>
A number of draft standards are provided at  </span><a href="https://www.internationaldeepspacestandards.com/"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">https://www.internationaldeepspacestandards.com/</span></a><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">
 .</span> <span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><br>
The have been collaboratively prepared by "International Space Station Partner Agencies" i.e. NASA, Roscosmos, JAXA, ESA, and CSA) with the goal of defining interfaces and environments to facilitate cooperative deep space exploration endeavors. These draft
 standards focus on topics prioritized in this early phase of exploration planning and are not intended to dictate design features beyond the interfaces.
</span><br>
<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><br>
With respect to the SLS Area the most interesting standard in preparation is the one about Communications.
<br>
The Communications standard defines the functional, interface and performance standards necessary to support interoperable and compatible communications between spacecraft, ground infrastructure, other space and surface vehicles.The International Communication
 System Interoperability Standards (ICSIS) is available at </span><a href="https://www.internationaldeepspacestandards.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/45/2018/02/Comm_020918_R2.pdf"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">https://www.internationaldeepspacestandards.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/45/2018/02/Comm_020918_R2.pdf</span></a>
<br>
<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><br>
As mentioned above, the draft standards are not intended to dictate design features beyond the interfaces and can be regarded as standards defining which standards shall be supported (sorry for the pun).</span>
<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><br>
As such, it will not be a big surprise for you the fact that most of the documents listed in section 2.1  APPLICABLE DOCUMENTS are CCSDS Standards with a very high numbers of documents from our SLS Area.</span>
<br>
<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><br>
So you/your WG may find interesting looking at the ICSIS document.</span> <br>
<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><br>
Best regards and Happy Easter to you all</span> <span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">
<br>
I look forward to seeing you all in Gaithersburg.</span> <br>
