WEEKLY HIGHLIGHTS FOR WEEK ENDING 20 November 1998:
STANFORD HIGHLIGHT
Dr. Doron Bardas and Art Nakashima held the first of two probe-to-SIA
Integration and Test Readiness Reviews (I&TRR). Many people, many pieces
of flight hardware, various ground support equipment, and the
associated
assembly procedures and QA documentation will be
required to carry out the
probe/SIA integration. In addition,
a significant amount of coordination
and planning will be
required to allow the process to move smoothly. This
I &
TRR helped prepare and organize GP-B to carry out this complex
operation.
SPACE VEHICLE
HIGHLIGHT
The Relativity Mission Spacecraft Data Management System
Interface Unit (IU)
and Command Telemetry Unit (CTU) are
being moved from B/251 to B/205 for
installation on the
flight vehicle. This represents the end of successful
testing of the IU and CTU with the flight Solid State
Recorder in the
Integrated Test Facility.
