Module 2: Testing & Transport
Before a rocket or spacecraft gets anywhere near the launchpad every part, process and detail is tested to ensure that they will meet the requirements for a safe and successful spaceflight. Once everything is working as it should, the rocket and the mobile launcher must be transported to the launchpad. These jobs fall to the engineers and ground systems crew at NASA. In the second module students will learn about the engineers and ground systems crew that play a vital role in developing and testing the vehicles, equipment, and processes that are essential to the mission. The testing and transport module is a great way to illustrate how precise every aspect of the mission must be to achieve success, while exploring the important roles of the teams on the ground.
This module includes an introduction and mini-mission and two additional missions: Building a Bullseye and The Path to the Pad.
