The key features of the ascent and Guidance navigation, and control (GN and C) system are discussed. How well this system performed during the orbital flight test program is examined. Flight results are compared with preflight predictions and postflight reconstructions. Variations from expected performance are identified as well as flight-to-flight trends. The most notable variation was the lofted trajectory observed on the Space Transportation System 1 flight. The lessons learned from the orbital flight test program are being used to enhance the overall system performance for future Shuttle flights. Several of the planned GN and C system enhancements are discussed.
