Overview The Rosetta Science Operations in the Rosetta Science Ground Segment is led by the Rosetta Science Operations Managers in close coordination with the Mission Manager, who has overall responsibility for the Rosetta mission, and with the Project Scientist, who is responsible for optimizing the science return of Rosetta. A basic principle of the Rosetta science operations is the requirement for a strong involvement by each PI team for the preparation of the science operations. The Science Working Team SWT advises the project scientist on science matters for the mission and indirectly assists the RSGS in elaborating science strategies and maximizing the scientific return of the mission. Tasks The work is to support the Rosetta Project Scientist, Dr. Matt Taylor, and will include the following Support to the Rosetta project scientist in his role in extracting the best science from the instruments on Rosetta, primarily as part of the planning process and in tracking the execution of the master science plan versus the actual archived process.

Support, where required, specific PI teams in the generation of their MTP level products Support the creation of and delivery to the MOC of the consolidated operational requests in the form of Pointing Requests PTR, most particularly for the High Activity Case. Support the generation of procedures where relevant Support Short Term planning collecting input from the PI teams in particular, support any data volume redistribution that may be needed after MTP submission. Provide support to the Rosetta project scientist in his role in ensuring the legacy of the mission through the provision of a populated archive for Rosetta is achieved. Work will also include support to the Observation Quick Look process in the area of tracking successfailure of observations with the delivery of the data for the archive.
