An integrated hardware/software fault tolerant system for an earth oriented, computer controlled spacecraft is described. The design philosophy as well as the rationale behind the chosen fault tolerant system is outlined. In-flight performance of the system is included for several different instances where the Failure Detection and Correction system acted autonomously to protect the spacecraft. This system exceeded the expectations of the designers by demonstrating the capability to provide a measure of safety to the spacecraft for inadvertent and undesirable ground commands as well as satisfying its primary function of monitoring the flight hardware and software for failures.
