There have been at least two threads already on this subject in the Space.com forums.<br /><br />This is the funny one:<br /><br />New Claim On Location Of Atlantis<br /><br />This one got a bit too serious at times, but also has some information which may be of interest:<br /><br />Ireland is Atlantis?<br /><br />Both have links you should find useful.

Internal NASA emails from the director of Shuttle Safety at the Johnson Space Center and the Shuttle Program Manager show how they struggled with the potential risk to astronauts' lives in assessing how to proceed with the launch of Atlantis in the wake of engine cutoff (ECO) sensor malfunctions. <br /><br />Aviation Week & Space Technology obtained copies of these emails, which are reproduced largely in full here on AviationWeek.com to retain the context intended by their authors. <br /><br />The emails were sent to the team by astronaut Bill McArthur, Jr. who heads the Space Shuttle Safety and Mission Assurance Office at the Johnson Space Center and Wayne Hale, shuttle program manager. <br /><br />McArthur has launched into space three times on the shuttle, a fourth time atop a Russian Soyuz and he also commanded the International Space Station. <br />http://www.spaceref.com/news/viewnews.nl.html?id=1255

It sounds like they have mostly been lucky in never having had to use them as it doesn't sound terribly reliable. <br /><br />A question though, do other rocket designs use anything similar and what has been the failure rate on those sensors?<br /><br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p> </p><p><font size="2" color="#0000ff">""Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former." --Albert Einstein"</font></p> </div>
