| The IVHM HTDs are providing data on the performance of advanced sensing technologies and commercial products which may be useful in reducing the cost and time associated with processing the space shuttle, streamlining problem troubleshooting, and improving NASA's awareness of shuttle systems during operation. Technologies and products that are found to be useful will be incorporated into an IVHM system for the shuttle. The data from these experiments may also be used to benefit other programs, such as liquid flyback boosters, X vehicles, the crew return vehicle, and lunar/Mars missions. |
