Development of a fully automated fluid resupply interface systemThe results of a cooperative effort to develop fluid components and systems that facilitate on-orbit servicing are discussed. The evolution from manual couplings to semi-automatic dual line interfaces to fully automatic multi-line resupply interfaces is traced. Hardware designs are presented in the context of solutions to requirements. Test data and user evaluations are reviewed.
