These engineers developed and tested Space Launch System (SLS) software that will tell the rocket how to operate for the first eight minutes of the Artemis I mission during its launch and ascent to orbit. Their work continues Marshall’s legacy of propelling NASA exploration through engineering. The engineers include Linda Brewster, Avionics and Software Test Facility branch chief; Shawna Broussard, an engineer who also works in the avionics test facility; Shaun Phillips, SLS flight software project lead; Marlyn Terek, Software Development branch chief and former flight software design team leader; and Deanna Whitehead, Flight and Ground Software and Simulation Division chief.
