Abstract:
The NASA Engineering & Safety Center (NESC) received a dissenting opinion describing aerodynamic concerns leading to a potential loss of vehicle control that would result in a failure to achieve mission objectives. Working in conjunction with the X-43A project, the NESC ensured that the aerodynamic issues were properly addressed through the existing independent Flight Readiness Review (FRR) process. The role of the NESC was to confirm that the independent FRR committee adequately reviewed, investigated and responded to the dissenting opinion.
