Abstract
Until recently, DSN configuration intended for support of the Viking 1975 mission included the SFOF, with its Central Processing System, Mission Support Areas, and Simulation Center. In response to the NASA Headquarters directive of October 1, 1971, the Project/ DSN interface was changed to delete the SFOF from the scope of DSN responsibility. As a consequence, many existing understandings between the DSN and the Project must now be renegotiated with resulting impact on schedules, documentation, and resources. This report identifies areas where rework is necessary and describes progress toward defining the new DSN configuration for Viking and reestablishing a mutually acceptable interface between the Project and DSN.
