Technology and testThe chairman of the Technology Applications in Space Working Group summarizes the technology issues for each of the disciplines in Tethered Satellite Systems. The disciplines are Tether Materials and Configurations, Tether System Dynamic Simulation Capability, Tether System Instrumentation, TAS Program Related Science Instrumentation, Atmospheric/Aerothermodynamic tethered system research, and TAS Discipline Program Accomplishment. To enable these tether applications, design and development programs have been recommended and are presently underway relative to the demonstration of the hollow cathode concept which is an enabling electrodynamic tether mission technology.
