It was determined that the FCU(fuel control unit) functioned normally in all respects with the exception that the motor bellows in the FCU had failed and exhibited a high cycle vibratory fatigue crack. In-flight monitoring did not reveal any significant fuel flow discrepancies because the design of the sensing bellows assembly provides redundancy, by means of an evacuated bellows, which allows the FCU to continue normal operation. This malfunction had no relevance to the occurrence.  2, record 1, English, - sensing%20bellows

On a déterminé que le FCU (régulateur de carburant) fonctionnait normalement sous tous les rapports, sauf que le soufflet moteur du FCU était défectueux et présentait une crique de fatigue mégacyclique causée par des vibrations. La surveillance en vol du débit carburant n'a révélé aucune anomalie importante parce que, de par leur conception, l'ensemble des soufflets de détection renferme, pour la redondance, un soufflet dépressurisé, ce qui permet au FCU de continuer à fonctionner normalement. Ce mauvais fonctionnement n'a pas de rapport avec l'incident.  2, record 1, French, - soufflet%20de%20d%C3%A9tection

The SEM subsystem consists of four instruments used for in situ measurements and monitoring of the near-earth(geostationary altitude) space environment and for observing the solar X-ray output. An energetic particles sensor(EPS) and high energy proton and alpha detector(HEPAD) monitor the incident flux density of protons, alpha particles, and electrons over an extensive range of energy levels. Solar output is monitored by an X-ray sensor(XRS) mounted on an X-ray positioning platform, fixed on the solar array yoke. Two redundant three-axis magnetometers, mounted on a deployed 3-meter boom, operate one at a time to monitor Earth's geomagnetic field strength in the vicinity of the spacecraft. The SEM instruments are capable of ground command-selectable, in-flight calibration for monitoring on-orbit performance and ensuring proper operation.  3, record 2, English, - space%2Denvironment%20monitor

The Space Environment Monitor (SEM) measures in situ the effect of the Sun on the near-earth solar-terrestrial electromagnetic environment, providing real-time data to the Space Environment Services Center (SESC). The SESC, as the nation’s "space weather" service, receives, monitors, and interprets a wide variety of solar-terrestrial data, and issues reports, alerts and forecasts for special events such as solar flares or geomagnetic storms. This information is important to the operation of military and civilian radio wave and satellite communication and navigation systems, as well as electric power networks, and to the mission of geophysical explorers, Shuttle and Space Station astronauts, high-altitude aviators, and scientific researchers.  3, record 2, English, - space%2Denvironment%20monitor
