Structural Dynamics Model Validation
DTO 257


Overview
This DTO will fire a sequence of primary reaction control system (RCS) jets and observe the effects on the structural dynamics of the mated Shuttle and International Space Station complex. The test is designed to confirm that primary reaction control system jet firings are acceptable for use if vernier reaction control system jets are not available.


History/Background
This is the fifth flight of DTO 257.
