    During the STS-45 launch countdown for the March 23 launch attempt, the liquidoxygen L0 2) concentration in the af t compartment peaked at 860 ppm during th eslow f i l l operation. This level exceeded the Launch Commit Criteria LCC l imitof 500 ppm. The L02 concentration had decreased to 200 ppm beforetroubleshooting began. The l iquid hydrogen LH2) concentration in the a f tcompartment peaked a t 750 ppm during the fast fl11, a level which alsp exceededthe L l imi t . As a resul t , the LH2 flow was stopped, and the LH2 concentration

    decreased to 100 ppm. After the L02 leak isolation tes t , similar LH2 leakisolation procedures were also performed. After extensive t roubleshoot ing, theLH2 leak could not be isolated and

    i t did not recur thereafter. However, thetroubleshooting act ivi t ies for the L02 and LH2 concentration levels resulted inthe launch being rescheduled fo r Marcfi 24, 1992.

    During the countdown to the launch on March 24, the L02 concentration againexceeded the L value, but rapidly recovered to within the L l imi t . Thisbehavior was anticipated and acceptable pe r a preflight agreement, and the

    loading continued . The LH2 concentration never exceeded the LCC l imi t duringthis second countdown.

    The STS-45 mission was launched from Kennedy Space Center KSC launch complex39 A at 8:13:40 a.m. e s t 084:13:13:39.991 G.m.t. on March 24, 1992. Thelaunch phase was satisfactory with no Orbiter anomalies noted. The launch wasdelayed 13 minutes 40 seconds because of unacceptable weather conditions on t h ~approach to th e return-to-launch-site RTLS runway Shutt le Landing Faci l i ty .

    The to ta l vehicle weight at l i f t - o ff was 4,495,720 lb . The Orbiter weight a tthat time was 233,652 Ib of which the payload comprised 20,371 lb .

    All SSME and RSRM s ta r t sequences occurred as expected and launch phaseperformance was satisfactory in l l respects Firs t stage ascent performance

    MECO underspeed condition, th e orbi ta l in-plane thrust from th e main propulsion

    system MPS dump was less than planned because of the early at t i tude maneuverthat was made to observe and photograph the ET in fulfillment of DTO 312 - ETThermal Protection System Performance. As a result of these two conditions, asingle engine OMS-3 maneuver of 12.0 f t / sec was performed at 084:16:03:42.8G.m.t. 00:02:50:03 MET to circularize the orbit a t 160 nmi.

    At 084:20:41 G.m.t. 00:07:01 MET , the APU fuel pump/gas generator B systemheaters were activated. The APU 2 and 3 systems operated properly; hpweverno response was noted from the APU 1 gas generator bed heater. As a resul t , the

    APU system A heaters were activated. After verifying proper operation of th eAPU 1 A heaters, the B heaters were reactivated, and af ter two abnormal cycles,proper operation began. After three days of nominal operation, the APU 1 gasgenerator bed heater anomaly recurred with three abnormal heater cycles temperatures dropped into the mid-200-degree range but should have cycled onat; H 5 OF , each of which was separated by several normal heater cycles. TheAPU heaters were reconfigured to the A system fo r th e remainder of the missionin an attempt to i sola te the intermittent component. The controller containscircui t ry that is common to both th e A and B heater systems. No recurrence of

    the heater anomaly was observed while operating on th e A heaters.Based on actual in-f l ight cryogenics usage data for the f i r s t five days inc on ju nc ti on w ith th e co nce rte d effort made by the f l ight crew to conservecryogenic consumables th e mission contingency extension capability hadincreased to greater than 3 days. On the morning of the sixth day the MissionManagement Team MMT decided to add a ninth day to th e planned mission so thatadditional scient i f ic data could be obtained.

    Results of the f l ight control system FCS checkout using improved auxil iarypower unit IAPU 2 were satisfactory. The APU operated for 5 minutes 3seconds and no water spray boiler cooling was required. The hydraulicssubsystem operated nominally as did the improved APU.

    ET separation was confirmed to have occurred properly. The crew reported

    shortly af ter ET separation, as they were observing and photographing the ET tomeet the TO 312 requirements, continuous venting from th e vicinity of theET/Orbiter disconnects and also a pulsating venting from the intertank area.The crew photographed the ET extensively, and the photographs were analyzed indetai l af te r landing.

    There are five valves in the ET/Orbiter disconnect area. Al l of the valves arefurnished to the ET Project by the Orbiter as part of the two i s o n n ~ tassemblies. t is u nl ik el y t ha t the 17-inch feedline valves were open fo r two

    reasons.

    a. The thrust of an open 17-inch valve would have caused the ET to tumble ata high rate and the crew reported that the tank was not tumbling a t a veryhigh ra te .

    b. The ET 17- inch valve has to be closed fo r the Orbiter valve to close andth e pos i ti on indicato rs on the Orbiter showed t s valves to be closed.

    The 4-inch L 2 recirculation valve on th e Orbiter is also mechanically coupledto the ET half of th e valve, which has a spring backup. Data show that thisv alv e c lo se d normally within the maximum allowable t ravel time. The 2-inchpressurization valves are spring loaded and close when the disconnect separates.

    Even though th e 1 7-in ch and 4-inch valves were closed, the valves could havebeen leaking because of improper seating; however, no way exists to verify t i s ~condition. The allowable leakage from t he 17- inch LH 2 valve is 5,000 scims, and t i s ent i re ly possible that the crew saw only normal leakage. The condition of

    th e 2-inch valves af te r separation is unknown One possible source of theobserved vapors could have been the normally trapped LH 2 between th e Orbiter andET halves of t he 1 7- in ch f lapper valves. At separation, th e hydrogen freezesinto ice crysta ls , a fact that was noted by th e umbilical cameras on OV 102Columbia on a number of f l ights

    SPACE SHUTTLE M IN ENGINE

    Al l SSME parameters were normal throughout th e prelaunch countdown, and th eindications were typical of prelaunch parameters observed on previous f l ights .Engine ready was achieved at th e proper t ime, a l l LCC were met, and engine s ta r tand thrust buildup were normal.

    Preliminary f l ight data indicate that th e SSME performance during mainstage,throt t l ing, shutdown, and propellant dump operations w well within .specifications. All three engines started and operated normally. High pressure

    oxidizer turbopump (HPOTP) and high pressure fuel turbopump temperatures werewell within specification throughout engine operation.

    n observation in th e STS-45 digi ta l data oxidizer preburner pump dischargepressure and HPOTP discharge pressure indicates a possible oxidizer preburnershutdown pop on main engine 1 S N 2024 and main engine 2 S N 2012 atshutdown 2.3 seconds. The pop c ri te ri a is based upon dynamic accelerometerdata and wil l be verified with accelerometer data when t becomes available.

    The SSME controllers provided proper control of the engines throughout poweredf l igh t . Engine dynamic data generally compared well with p revious f l ights andtes t data. All on-orbit act ivi t ies associated with th e SSME s were accomplishedsuccessfully, and no significant SSME problems were noted in th e data.

    SHUTTLE R NGE SAFETY SYSTEM

    The Shuttle Range Safety System (SRSS) closed-loop test ing was completed asscheduled during th e launch countdown. All SRSS safe and arm (S A) devices were

    armed and system inhibi ts were turned off at th e p rope r t imes . Al l SRSSmeasurements indicated that th e system performance was as expected throughoutthe f l ight . Prior to SRB separation, the SRB S devices were safed, and SRBsystem power w turned off as planned. The ET system remained active unt i l ET

    procedures failed to reproduce or locate the sources of the leaks that occurreddur ing loading .

    Analysisof

    thedata indicates the

    most probable causeof the

    LH2 and L02 leaks was a transient distortion of the disconnect/seal material ineach system due to the thermal gradient that occurs early during fast f i l l

    However the t roubleshoot ing act ivi t ies fo r the L02 and L82 concentration levelsresulted in the launch being rescheduled fo r March 24 1992.

    The overall performance of th e MPS duri ng t he countdown and successful launch onMarch 24 was excellent. All pretanking purges were properly performep and L02and L82 loading was performed as planned with no stop flows or reverts. The

    MPS

    helium system performed sat isfactor i ly.Throughout the preflight operations no significant hazardous gas concentrationswere detected and the maximum LH 2 level in the Orbiter af t compartment was260 ppm, which compares very well with previous data for th is vehicle. The af tcompartment L02 concentration reached a maximum of approximately 1130 ppm earlyinto the L02 f a s t f i l l act ivi ty. The oxygen concentration stayed above the Ll imi t of 500 ppm fo r about 6 minutes and stabil ized a t about 180 ppm duringreplenish. This momentary high concentration level was anticipated and

    acceptable pe r a preflight agreement. The a f t compartment helium concentrationpeaked at 9000 ppm, which was not a violation of the LCC.

    A comparison of the calculated propellant loads at th e end of replenish versusthe inventory loads resul ts in a loading accuracy of 0.04 percent for liquidhydrogen and 0.035 percent for l iquid oxygen.

    Ascent MPS performance was completely normal. Data indicate that th e liquidoxygen and hydrogen pressurization systems performed as planned and that l l

    net positive suction pressure NPSP requirements were met throughout thef l ight . Space Shuttle ME O occurred 510.4 seconds af ter l i f t o ff .

    propellants were used by th e RCS during interconnect operations. During entry,

    a single 10-second fir ing of l l

    four forward RCS yaw thrusters was made atMach 4.0 in support of DTO 250 Forward RCS Flight Test - Control SurfaceEffects) .

    A few occurrences of degraded chamber pressure on th e vernier thrusters,particularly F5L, L5L, and R5R, were noted. This condition has been noted onprevious fl ights with high vernier thruster usage. The lowest noted chamberpressure was 70 psia on L5L nominal pressure is 110 psia). These ~ chamberpressure occurrences were most l ikely caused by ei ther combustion residue

    building up in the chamber pressure sensing tube, or ni t ra tes accumulating inthe oxidizer valve trim orifice resulting in an off-nominal mixture ra t io .Either case is cleared by a long-duration fir ing of th e thruster.

    Orbital Maneuvering Subsystem

    The OMS performance was excellent throughout the mission with no anomalies ori r regular i t ies r ep or te d o r noted in the data. Three maneuvers OMS-2, OMS-3,and deorbit) were performed with a to ta l fir ing time of 381.4 seconds. In

    addition, the RCS was interconnected to th eOMS

    fo r an extended period duringwhich 2.90 percent 376.6 lb) of the propellant from the l e f t OMS t anks and5.0 percent 647.6 lb) of th e propellant from the r ight OMS tanks was used.Total propellant consumption by the OMS i nc luding the RCS interconnect usage was9581 lb of oxidizer and 5778 lb of fuel .

    A single engine l e f t ) OMS 3 maneuver of 12.0 f t / sec was required because of theunder-speed conditions existing at ME O This maneuver was performed at084:16:03:42.8 G.m.t . 00:02:50:03 MET to circularize the orbit a t 160 nmi. A

    discussion of the conditions that required this maneuver is presented in th eAvionics and Software Subsystem section of this report .

    hydrogen and 2,291.0 lb of oxygen were consumed and 2,580 lb of water were

    produced during the 9-day mission. The average Orbiter electr ical power loadwas 510 amperes during the mission.

    At 084:14:30 G.m.t. 00:50:00 MET , the fuel ce l l 3 ce l l performance monitor CPM subs tack different ia l voltage remained at the periodic se l f - tes t value of50 mV for up to 3.5 minutes instead of the normal 2. 3 seconds Flight ProblemSTS-45-V-04 . The f l ight day 1 occurrence continued for 3 hours and the fl ightday 2 occurrence continued for 2 hours before the PM began o p r t i n ~properly.Main busses Band C had previously been tied together in accordance with normal

    procedures for this mission, a condition which would have provided an insightinto fuel ce l l performance had a to ta l failure of the PM occurred. The PMperformed nominally for the remainder of the mission af te r the f l ight day 2occurrence. Preliminary analysis indicates a leaking capacitor in the PM asthe cause of the er ra t i c operation.

    Auxiliary Power Unit Subsystem

    The PU performance was nominal throughout the mission with an improved PU

    IAPU flown in the 2 position. The IAPU performance was excellent withs ignif icant ly less heat soakback af ter IAPU shutdown. Three PU anomalies werenoted and are as follows:

    a. PU 3 Z-axis vibration sensor accelerometer showed no output readoff-scale low throughout the mission Fl ight Problem STS-45-V-03 . Thisaccelerometer provides data for engineering evaluation and has no effect on th e operation of th e unit . Postfl ight test ing and analysis showed thatth e c on di ti on was caused by a shorted connector pin.

    b. At 084:20:41 G.m.t. 00:07:01 MET , the PU fuel pump/gas generator Bsystem heaters were activated. The PU 2 and 3 systems operated properly;however, no response was noted from the PU 1 gas generator GG bedheater Flight Problem STS 45 V OS The GG bed temperature measurement

    c During ascent and FCS checkout, th e IAPU 2 gearbox nitrogen pressure

    measurement was errat ic . This condition was in i t i a l ly attr ibuted toth e

    relocation of th e s en so r on the IAPU. However, during entry, both th enitrogen and lubrication o il outlet pressure measurements were erra t ic andlow Flight Problem STS-45-V-11 . A few minutes af ter IAPU 2 was started,the nitrogen pressure dropped to approximately 5.5 psi and the gearbox wasrepressurized. In i t i a l ly, both the nitrogen and lubrication o il outletpressures increased and became smoother. However, over the next 38minutes, t he p re ssures slowly decreased and another repressurization wasrequired. This condi ti on d id no t impact entry operations; however, duringpostfl ight checks, the lubrication o il quantity in the gearbox was foundto be 150 cc s less than the level recorded during prefl ight preparations.

    One anomaly was noted during entry when VS 1 was overcooling while operating onth e B controller Flight Problem STS-45-V-10). Vhen cooling was in i t ia ted, thelubrication o i l return temperature dropped from 249 of to 177 of 72 of drop ,which i s i nd ic at iv e o f overcooling during a 5 1/2-minute period. Control wasswitched back to the A controller 1.5 minutes l a te r and the tempera turesre tu rne d to normal.

    The VSB 2 gaseous nitrogen re l i e f valve failed th e in-f l ight checkout, and th eproblem i s believed to be an intermittent condit ion wi th in the pressuretransducer. This same signature was noted on STS-44. .

    Electrical Power Distribution and Control Subsystem

    The performance of th e e lec t r i ca l power distribution and control subsystem wasnominal during phases of t he mis sion .

    Smoke Detection and Fire Suppression Subsystem

    The smoke detection subsystem operated nominally and showed no indications ofsmoke during the mission. Use of the f i re suppression subsystem was no trequired.

    AirlockSupport Subsystem

    Use of the airlock support subsystem was no t required because no extravehicularact ivi ty was planned or performed. The active system monitor parametersindicated normal output levels throughout the mission.

    Avionics and Software Subsystems

    At HECO, a 5. 7 ft lsec under-speed condition existed. This condition was mostl ikely caused by the manner in which the onboard guidance t reats the effect ofgravity during ta i loff . The effect of gravity during ta ilo ff is assumed to bemission independent by guidance software; whereas in real i ty, th e gravityeffect is dependent on the specific orbi ta l inclination of the mission.Therefore , h igher f l ight-path-angle missions will generally have largerunder-speed conditions than the lower flight-path-angle missions. In additionto the ME O under-speed condition, the orbi ta l in-plane thrust from the HPS dumpwas less than planned because of the early at t i tude maneuver that was made toobserve and photograph the ET in fulf i l lment of T O 312 ET Thermal ProtectionSystem Performance . As a result of these two conditions, a small OMS-3maneuver was performed to circularize the orbit a t approximately 160 nmi.

    The avionics subsystem performance was nominal. The new high accuracy iner t ia lnavigation system HAINS iner t ia l measurement unit IMU S N 203 was flown in

    Communications and Tracking Subsystem

    The communications and tracking subsystem performance was acceptable.

    Ku-band frequency shif ts of 1 to 20 MHz in the downlink were noted th e WhiteSands ground s ta t ion. The f i r s t occasion of the shif ts caused a short loss ofchannels 1 and 2. Later in the mission, th e White Sands ground s ta t ion was ableto make a video recording of the spectrum analyzer during a Ku-band frequencysh i f t . The shif t occurred dur ing a video and instrumentation tape recorder VITR dump at approximately 089:07:20 G.m.t. 04:18:06:20 MET . An analysis ofth e data shows no apparent correlat ion between the Ku-band frequency sh i f t andth e SEPAC electron beam f i r ing. Onboard troubleshooting showed that each timeth e VITR playback command was sent th e Ku-band frequency shifted 20 MHz.

    At 085:16:24 G.m.t. 01:03:11 MET , the Ku-band antenna di d no t automaticallytrack af ter lock-up on the forward l ink while in th e GPC acquisi t ion mode Flight Problem STS-45-V-07). Several instances of auto t rack failure occurredduring the mission and th e problem was cleared each time by selecting th e GPCdesignate mode. This same problem also occurred on this unit S N 107) duringth e STS-37 mission and was cleared each time by momentarily selecting the Pdesignate mode.

    Postfl ight troubleshooting could no t duplicate the STS-37 problem, althoughmetal shavings were found on th e Ku-band antenna dish. This problem di d notrecur on th e STS-43 or STS-44 missions when th is unit was also flown.

    In addition the Ku-band transmitter RF power output telemetry indication waserrat ic in that th e indicated power would drop from 31 W to -22 V, but theantenna continued to perform t s function sat isfactor i ly This was an

    Operational Instrumentation

    The operational instrumentation subsystem operated nominally except for th e lossof th e P U 3 Z axis vibration sensor prior to l i f t o f f and th e loss pf th e PU2 EG T 2 sensor af te r landing. Neither of th e fai lures had any impact on the

    Two impact damage s i tes were found on the upper surface of the r ight wing Rpanel 10 Fl ight Problem STS-45-V-08). These two gouges were 1. 9 inch by1. 6 i nch and 0. 4 inch by 1.0 inch, and the substrate was exposed. An evaluationi s being made to determine the cause of this damage and the time of occurrence.

    The main landing gear door thermal barriers exhibited minor damage, the mostnotable being protrusion at the forward location.

    A portable Shuttle thermal imager was used to measure the surface temperature oft hr ee a re as on the Orbiter TPS after landing. At 21 minutes af ter wheels stop,the Orbiter nose cap R was 140 of, the right-hand wing leading edge R panel9 was 77 of, and the right-hand wing leading edge R panel 17 was also 77 of .

    Vindow hazing was less than normal, with l ight hazing observed on windows 3 and4. Greater than typical t i l damage was sustained on t he per iphe ry of l lwindows; however, in most cases the damage was surface coating loss only. TheET thermal barriers performed nominally. The payload bay doors, upper wings,and OMS pod TPS performance was nominal.

    GOVERNMENT FURNISHED EQUIPMENT ND FLIGHT RE V EQUIPMENT

    The overall performance of the government furnished equipment GFE and fl ightcrew equipment was very satisfactory except fo r the 16-mm Arriflex camera on/offswitch which operated intermittently. One other item of note was the operationof the vacuum cleaner when the thermal cutoff switch opened. The crew reportedthat the vacuum cleaner had been operating continuously with the f i l t e r cleaningtool attached for 45 minutes a t the time of the thermal cutoff . After coo ling ,the vacuum cleaner operated sat isfactor i ly for the remainder of the mission.

The SEPAC used t plasma c on ta ct or f or experimentation that will help verify a theory thatunderlies th e basic physics on th e formation of th e universe.

    The f i f th day was excellent from th e aspect o f o bta in in g scient i f ic data. Thescient is ts believe that th e data collected will provide unprecedentedinformation about th e Earth s atmosphere. Atmospheric stat ions in India,Indonesia, Japan, and New Zealand made simultaneous observations with th einstruments aboard the ATLAS payload. The GRILLE instrument detected hydrogenchloride a t higher levels of th e atmosphere than previously measured. Plasmaphysics and ul t raviole t astronomy instruments were also active. Data werecollected on a br i l l i an t red and purple natural aurora stretching from Africa toAustralia, and a payload low-light camera photographed blue clouds of xenon gasas th e gas was released into th e area around th e Orbiter by one of th eexperiments. One of th e major i tems completed this f i f th day was th e second ofthree solar observation periods to gain information on th e solar spectra andvariat ions in th e Sun s energy output.

    ATLAS-1 EXPERIMENTS

    The primary objectives of the 12 ATLAS-1 instruments that were located on theSpacelab pal le t in th e payload bay were to measure th e v ariation in solaroutput; measure th e Earth s middle atmospheric constituents over the ~ u r s ofone solar cycle; and supplement the measurements from the Upper AtmosphereResearch Satel l i te .

    Atmospheric Science

    In th e field of atmospheric science, the Imaging Spectrometric Observatory ISO)measured spectral features in determining the composition of the atmosphere downto th e trace amounts of chemicals measured in parts-per- t r i l l ion. Theinvestigation, which previously flew on Spacelab 1, added data about the variedreactions and energy transfer processes that occur in th e Earth s environment.

    The TMOS and th e Gri l le Spectrometer experiments mapped trace molecules,including carbon dioxide and ozone, in the middle atmosphere. The mapping wasaccomplished from orbi ta l sunrise to orbi ta l sunset, which occurred about every90 minutes throughout the f l ight , by measuring th e infrared radiation that themolecules absorb. Both of these experiments have flown previously, TMOS onSpace lab 3 in 1985 and GRILLE on Spacelab 1 in 1983.

The SS UV assessed instrument performance by directlycomparing data from identical instruments aboard th e NO sa te l l i t es and th eNIMBUS-7 sa te l l i t e as the Shuttle and sa te l l i t e passed over the same Earthlocation. SSBUV data also will be compared with data from the U RS launched inSeptember 1991 to study the processes that lead to ozone depletion. The solardata taken by SSBUV also wil l be compared with data from the four solarinstruments.

    The SSBUV was physica l ly separate from the ATLAS-1 payload, housed two G Scanisters mounted in the payload bay. This mission was the fourth for th eSSBUV, having previously flown in October 1989, October 1990, and August 1991.

    Solar Science

    Four solar science investigations measured the Sun s energy output to determine t variat ions and spectrum. The Active Cavity Radiometer ACR and theMeasurement of Solar Constant SOLCON experiments measured the to ta l amount ofl ight and energy emitted by the Sun. These data a re e sp ec ia ll y important in th estudy of Earth climates.

    The Solar Spectrum Measurement SOLSPEC and th e Solar Ultraviolet SpectralIrradiance Monitor SUSIM investigations along with the SSBUV discussedpreviously added significantly to the scient is ts understanding of howvariations in the Sun s energy output affects the chemistry of the atmosphere.Al l four of these experiments have previously flown on the Shuttle.

    INVESTIGATIONS INTO POLYMER MEM R NE PROCESSING

    The IPMP a middeck payload , was flown for the sixth time on th e STS-45 mission.The IPMP investigated th e physical and chemical effects induced by microgravitysuch that th e improved knowledge base can be applied to commercial m e ~ r n eprocessing techniques. Polymer membranes have been used by industry inseparation processes fo r many years. Typical applications include enriching th eoxygen content of a i r, desalination of water, and kidney dialys is .

    Polymer membranes frequently are made using a two-step process. A samplemixture of polymer and solvents is applied to a cas ting sur face . The f i r s t stepi nvolves the evapora ti on o f s olv en ts from the mixture. In th e second step, anon-solvent typically water is introduced and the desired membrane isprecipitated, completing t he p rocess . Previous f l ights of IPMP where thecomplete process was flown were STS-41, -43, -48, and -42, and the evapora tionstep alone was flown on STS-31. The precipitat ion step was the only portion ofthe experiment that was flown on STS-45.
