{"product_id":"integration-and-test-for-small-michael-r-wright-9781289289768","title":"Integration and Test for Small Shuttle Payloads","description":"\u003cbr\u003e Recommended approaches for shuttle small payload integration and test (I\u0026amp;T) are presented. The paper is intended for consideration by developers of small shuttle payloads, including I\u0026amp;T managers, project managers, and system engineers. Examples and lessons learned are presented based on the extensive history of the NASA's Hitchhiker project. All aspects of I\u0026amp;T are presented, including: (1) I\u0026amp;T team responsibilities, coordination, and communication; (2) Flight hardware handling practices; (3) Documentation and configuration management; (4) I\u0026amp;T considerations for payload development; (5) I\u0026amp;T at the development facility; (6) Prelaunch operations, transfer, orbiter integration, and interface testing; and (7) Postflight operations. This paper is of special interest to those payload projects which have small budgets and few resources: That is, the truly 'faster, cheaper, better' projects. All shuttle small payload developers are strongly encouraged to apply these guidelines during I\u0026amp;T planning and ground operations to take full advantage of today's limited resources and to help ensure mission success. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael R.
