| International Space Station On-Orbit Loads Validation |
| DTO 261 |
| Overview |
|
This DTO will use the Shuttle's aft primary reaction control system jets to measure the structural dynamics (natural frequencies, modal amplitudes, and structural dampening) of the ISS and use the results to validate critical areas of the on-orbit loads prediction models. Tests will obtain photogrammetric measurements of the radiator. |

This is the third flight of DTO 261. |
