The Nasa Marshall Space centers have received three computers from the place Boeing that will be effectively used to develop the flight software for space agency’s Space Launch system and also heavy lift rocket that can be intended to carry humans to deep space destinations such as mars. This Boeing provides the computer hardware and also low level software like the operating system whiel in the same way the NASA develops the software to fly the vehicle. The NASA describes the new systems as the real time embedded computers in which it is capable of computing and executing the programs on the fixed schedule in which it can be measured in milliseconds.
Dane Richardson said that “These are the most capable flight computers ever developed for human spaceflight”. Dane Richardson is the manager of Boeings SLS avionics and software team. These three redundant processors interrupt the data separately and vote for sure and they will response to be sent. Richardson says” The triple redundant processor makes each computer reliable in the harsh radiation environment. In the same he also said that” the three computers working in the concert make the vehicle reliable”. The NASA has the legacy flight software’s, modeling and stimulation software from other programs that cane be recently concluded in the space shuttle programs that can be widely used for developing the SLS software’s. The main arrival of the test bed signals starts the development of the application modeling and stimulation of space flight conditions. This SLS is targeted for 2017 and eventually payload of 130 metric tons needed that will be enabled to manned to the missions beyond the earth orbit.
