To assure the Space Shuttle and all associated subsystems are ready for launch, Kennedy Space Center engineers must monitor tens of thousands of telemetry measurements of ground-processing data. This intense data monitoring occurs constantly during ground processing, but peaks in the days and weeks leading up to launch. To assist engineers in this around-the-clock monitoring of thousands of measurements, a software agent, the NASA Engineering Shuttle Telemetry Agent (NESTA), was recently developed and deployed at KSC. NESTA operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, sniffing out predefined data patterns of interest and instantly notifying shuttle engineers via email or wireless page.
