ABOUT THIS DECK
The Tethered Satellite System (TSS) consists of a satellite, a conducting tether, and a tether deployment/retrieval system to be flown on the Space Shuttle. The objectives of the TSS-1 mission were to: (1) verify engineering performance of the Tethered Satellite System (TSS); (2) determine and understand the electro-magnetic interaction between the tether/satellite/orbiter system and the ambient space plasma; (3) investigate and understand the dynamical forces acting upon a tethered satellite; and, (4) develop the capability for future tether applications on the Shuttle and Space Station. From NASA
Built by Martin Marietta (now is Locked Martin) in Jefferson County Colorado
Remember the space shuttle? A great NASA program until some extreme liberal president named Obama cancelled the entire program.
At least congress blocked Obama from cancelling the Artemis program.
