Description
The Cargo Integration Test Equipment (CITE) is a high fidelity electrical and mechanical simulation of the orbiter cargo bay. The CITE provides the capability to test cargo-to- orbiter interface compatibility prior to installing the cargo in the orbiter cargo bay. This paper describes the technical concept and application of the CITE system. The CITE has two facilities in operation at Kennedy Space Center; one in the Operations and Checkout (O&C) building and another in the Vertical Processing Facility (VPF).
