It is part of the constellation project and is designed to take astronauts back to the moon and maybe Mars. The upper stage of the Ares I refers to the liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen fuel tanks as well as the J2-X engine. The components of the upper stage include but are not limited to gore panels, common bulkhead domes, barrel panels, Y-rings and manhole rings. Development issues often arise when designing and manufacturing components for a new launch vehicle. A historical development archive is being created so that engineers may easily identify past problems and solutions to these problems as well as the material properties of the component and testing regimes applied to the component. The archive also identifies a timeline for each component starting from initial development, running through the materials testing process and ending when final components are delivered. The archive will be available on the MAPTIS network.
