United Space Alliance Innovates for Future Space Operations
United Space Alliance has introduced a technology innovation designed to provide astronauts and ground controllers quick and easy access to a depth of information about their spacecraft systems, procedures and troubleshooting – crucial capabilities for future exploration missions.
It has announced the receipt of a patent for Attentus, an Integrated Data Management technology that can be used for spacecraft design, development, processing and operations. Attentus organizes information from all spacecraft lifecycle phases into an operations-friendly format based on visual search and retrieval cues. The tool allows users to navigate rapidly to stored content such as spacecraft flight hardware data, ground processing facilities or mission operations procedures by clicking through visual, physical or topical zones.
