scope:
Where previous JPL spaceflight projects relied solely on interim inspections and walkdowns during ATLO, the in-house MSL project conducted a formal, final, mechanical walkdown of the as-built configuration prior to vehicle stacking at the launch site. Because NuSTAR was an out-of-house build, an assessment and final walkdown was performed independent of the system contractor that similarly produced findings and observations. Conduct a final mechanical walkdown of the spacecraft prior to stacking or encapsulation for launch.
