In-Space and Lunar Surface Attachment Systems – Seals

While the IDSS standard is specified to enable androgynous docking resulting in a seal-on-seal (SoS) mated configuration, current docking systems and their seals were not certified to do so. This IRAD project goal is to characterize SoS performance including leak rates, compression loads, and adhesion loads under aligned and misaligned conditions at subscale as an initial step toward androgynous docking certification.
