Lockheed Missiles and Space Company, Inc. has performed a probabilistic risk assessment of the space shuttle main propulsion pressurization system for NASA. A draft report of the assessment was completed in mid September 1987. We at the Lawerence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) were asked by NASA to perform an independent peer review of that risk assessment. This review assessed whether the analysis was done consistent with currently used methods for doing such analyses, pointed out deficiencies found in the analysis, and evaluated how these deficiencies affected the final result.
