Atlantis' booster requires troubleshooting
Atlantis' booster requires troubleshooting
By Chris Bergin, 2/13/2007 10:26:10 AM United Space Alliance (USA) engineers are working on a troubleshooting plan, following 'erratic' chamber pressure readings on the right hand SRB (Solid Rocket Booster). The issue - which was noted last night without specifics - is still expected to delay rollout by 24 hours, although engineers are looking at possibly continuing their evaluations on the launch pad. However, two of the IPRs (In Process Reviews) are officially classed as constraints to rollout. http://www.nasaspaceflight.com/content/?cid=5021 -- -------------- Jacques :-) www.spacepatches.nl |

The problem is a faulty pressure sensor... one of three in each SRB. The other two show 'normal'. It is being likened to the ECO fiasco. I think the plan is to replace all six, just to be safe.
