Description: Research and development directed at developing new and enhanced millimeter wave nondestructive inspection (NDI) tools for inspection of the Space Shuttle External Tank Spray On Foam Insulation (SOFI) and the acreage heat tiles of the orbiter which may potentially used at several critical stages during the pre-launch, after landing, and when in space. There is an urgent need for the advanced and robust NDI technique capable of inspecting the external SOFI during and subsequent to the application of the foam and prior to a launch.
