What was the procedure on a Space Shuttle Transatlantic abort?
I'm curious about the Space Shuttle Transatlantic abort. Can you tell me what the procedure was for that?
Sure, the Transatlantic abort was a contingency procedure in case the Space Shuttle could not achieve orbit and had to land at a designated site in Europe or Africa. The procedure involved jettisoning the external tank and using the orbiter's engines to steer towards a landing site.
