The Shuttle Infrared Leeside Temperature Sensing (SILTS) experiment is described. The SILTS experiment will obtain high-spatial-resolution measurements of the temperatures of Shuttle orbiter leeside surfaces during atmospheric entry. The data will be obtained by means of an imaging, infrared radiometer, located atop the orbiter's vertical tail, which will view the orbiter fuselage and left wing. Implementation of the SILTS experiment required a significant change to the configuration of the orbiter's vertical tail fintip. The orbiter Columbia has been modified to carry the SILTS experiment which will be active on Columbia's next flight, currently scheduled for mid-1985.
