jsc2016e017570 (1/22/2016) --- Photographic documentation of Saffire-I taken during the OA-6 Crew Equipment Interface Test (CEIT) at KSC/Space Station Processing Facility (SSPF). The NASA Advanced Exploration Systems program began a project to develop and demonstrate spacecraft fire safety technologies in relevant environments. The keystone of these demonstrations is a large-scale fire safety experiment conducted on an International Space Station (ISS) re-supply vehicle after it has undocked from the ISS and before it enters the atmosphere.
