The competitive study implements the phase-A feasibility and requirements study for one of the elements of the Human Lunar Surface Demonstrator Mission. The element to be studied is a lunar ascent vehicle that should act as a demonstrator vehicle in preparation for human missions. It will also carry samples. The mission of the ascent vehicle is to launch from the lunar surface and rendezvous with the Deep Space Gateway in the Moon’s orbit, where it will be berthed. In the study, the contractor is to trade various design options based on a consolidated requirements set as approved by the Mission Definition Review. The project management documentation as required by the European Cooperation for Space Standardisation, as well as a phase-A requirements set on system level are required deliverables.
