STS-122: Delta FRR Articles

• STS-122: Delta FRR Articles by Chris Bergin on 27 Jan, 2008 10:13
• Documents on L2 - will have to be a series of articles (opening with the latest processing news) as the amount of info is massive. 17 Overviews, first two in article 1 - doubt I'll get to cover more than five or six given the launch date.
  
  Previous (for the December launch) FRR coverage: http://forum.nasaspaceflight.com/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=10808&posts=14&start=1

• Great work as always. Still reading through that FRR presentation on L2. Stunning amount of info and a real testiment to the shuttle team.
  
  Liked this,
  "Even more recent in NASA's plans are the SARJ Grease Guns, which included the first images of what appears to be items more common to the catering industry. However, these guns will have a much more important purpose than decorating cakes."

• Very interesting adn informative article. Is this grease gun a bit like the T-Rad, in that it's only real test will be in the space enviorment? So it might not actually work as a solution?

  A good question, but I can't really answer that, other than to say they have not made any references similar to that of testing T-Rad on a DTO.
