内容記述 | Consideration is given to an incident on March 26, 1987, in which an Atlas/Centaur 67 vehicle carrying a naval communication satellite was struck by a triggered, cloud-to-ground lightning flash about 48 s into the flight. The lightning current coupled a transient signal into the wiring of the Centaur digital computer unit, ultimately causing the breakup of the vehicle. The meteorological conditions at the time of the launch and the lightning flash triggered by the Atlas/Centaur 67 vehicle are analyzed on the basis of studies of the incident by the NASA Investigation Board. |
