Reliability Achievement in High Technology Space Systems

Dean L. Lindstrom

Abstract:	Long Life space systems developed from the early 1960's to the present day have demonstrated the achievement of long life and high reliability in a high technology space environment. With electronic parts improvements, decreasing failure rates are leading to greater emphasis on the elimination of design errors. The achievement of reliability is dependent on three primary factors: technical capability, good judgement, and discipline.
