Six Sigma (6σ) is” a set of techniques and tools for process improvement. It was introduced by American engineer Bill Smith while w
There are so many tools to use. Which is the best for a general case? Is it necessary to use all of the above tools? Is it practical to use all of the above tools?

I've heard most of the project's budget is going toward proving the fact that the mission can be completed, which I believe is basically ConOps
Requirements can be technical or non-technical. Nontechnical requirements may reside at the program or project requirements level, such as human needs for manned space, user intuition in working with a cube satellite kit, or international collaboration when sourcing major components. Allocated technical requirements can be defined as functional requirements (what functions need to be performed to accomplish the objective?), performance requirements (how well does the system need to perform the functions?), and interface requirements (what connections must be made to the system to perform the functions?). Crosscutting technical requirements originate from the nature of the space environment (like radiation, thermal, acoustic, mechanical loads, contamination, radiofrequency), safety, reliability, human factors, and those that originate from the “-ilities” and from Design and Construction
With all these requirements that are needed from many different subsystems I can see why space projects require such a large staff to complete
The general process of designing a spacecraft from Pre-Phase A to Phase B is listed in steps [the New SMAD]:
These phases would have been very useful and helpful in EPET 301.I wish we had access to this last semester
stages of the design process when incompatibilities are identified.
Designing a spacecraft is very similar to designing a piece of code that has a certain purpose and everything related to that code (the functions, libraries, etc.) are specific to the purpose/goal of the code
A useful
I'm surprised the STM didn't make an appearance here as that seems to be one of the most vital documented structures of building/launching a spacecraft
jet engines
The Germans created the jet engine first and the Americans stole their technology and made it better
