CRATER to be updated?
What are they going to do about CRATER?
Are they going to re-evaluate / retest and update it with new information?
Are they going to abandon it?
Are they going to continue to use it within its existing limitations /
parameters?
Are they going to add a second tool to handle whatever CRATER is not
designed to do?
What happens if they come across a hit outside of the scope of CRATER --
get engineers to do the calculations by hand and run computational fluid
dynamics (CFD) sims?
I haven't heard much about what NASA intends to do with CRATER, so got to
wondering.
Was wondering because was thinking... next time they catch debris falling
off, what then? What if it's outside the scope of CRATER? Are they going to
make any CRATER update as a prereq for RTF?
