[b]NASA Engineers Conduct a Test of the First RS-25 Engine Controller at Stennis Space Center[/b] NASA engineers conducted a test of the first RS-25 engine controller that will be used on an actual Space Launch System flight on the A-2 Test Stand at Stennis Space Center on March 23. The RS-25 engine, with the flight controller, was test fired for a full-duration 500 seconds. The engine controller, which was installed on RS-25 development engine no. 0528 for the test, is a modern version from the controller that helped propel all of the space shuttle missions. The controller manages the engine by regulating the thrust and fuel mixture ratio and monitors the engine's health and status.
