About this work
Kennedy Space Center, Fla. — The Orbiter Experiment Support System (OEX) recorder from Columbia is removed from the T-38 jet aircraft that brought it to KSC. Search teams near Hemphill, Texas, recovered the recorder, which stores sensor information about temperature, aerodynamic pressure, vibrations and other data from dozens of sensor locations on the orbiter, operating only during launch and re-entry. The OEX uses magnetic tape to record data that is not sent to the ground by telemetry.
