3 The ExoMars Program two missions 2016 Mission composed of a Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO) and an Entry Descent and Landing Demonstrator Module (EDM) 2020 Mission composed of a Carrier Module (CM) shipping a Descent Module (DM) that contains a Rover and a stationary Landing Platform Ref.: EXM-MS-PBR-AI-0241

4 ExoMars 2016: objectives Study the composition of the Mars atmosphere and its local variations, 3 and identify the possible sources of trace gases (e.g. Methane) Measure the environment parameters at the Mars surface Flight qualify the entry, descent and landing technologies of a platform Provide relay function for this and future missions to Mars 3 Ref.: This document is not to be reproduced, modified, adapted, published, translated in any material form in whole or in part nor disclosed to any third party without THALES the ALENIA prior written SPACE OPEN permission of Thales Alenia Space , Thales Alenia Space

5 ExoMars 2016: SC Composite launch 14 March 2016 : the Orbiter+EDM composite is launched from Baikonour (Kazakhstan) by means of Proton launcher fitted with a Breeze Upper Stage. 4 4 Ref.: This document is not to be reproduced, modified, adapted, published, translated in any material form in whole or in part nor disclosed to any third party without THALES the ALENIA prior written SPACE OPEN permission of Thales Alenia Space , Thales Alenia Space

15 Anomaly Scenario Saturation of the IMU gyro output (rate >187.5 /s) Persistence of the IMU gyro saturation flag for 1 s leading to an attitude error propagation of about 140, slightly worsened by the inconsistent management of sign of saturation velocity RDA slant range < 3000 m GNC converts slant range into altitude using the estimated attitude (Radar In the Loop) Altitude = SL *cos(θ) Due to wrong attitude estimation (θ >90 ) Last RDA slant range = 3492 m.
