Summary
| Description | Using the world’s most powerful spacecraft shaker system inside NASA's Space Environment Complex, NASA exposed Sierra Space's Dream Chaser spaceplane and its Shooting Star to vibrations like those it will experience during launch and re-entry into the atmosphere. The spaceplane was then tested inside the In-Space Propulsion facility's vacuum chamber, where it experienced low ambient pressures, low-background temperatures, and dynamic solar heating. These tests and simulated environments helped prepare Dream Chaser for what it encountered during its mission. |
