About this work
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – This aerial view shows the north end of the Kennedy Space Center’s 15,000-foot long Shuttle Landing Facility. On the far left at the end of the runway, a rock and crater-filled planetary scape has been built so engineers can test the Autonomous Landing and Hazard Avoidance Technology, or ALHAT system on the Project Morpheus lander. Testing will demonstrate ALHAT’s ability to provide required navigation data negotiating the Morpheus lander away from risks during descent.
