The monitoring and subsequent management of structural health plays an essential role in system health management applications for space transportation vehicles. Due to the characteristics of space structures, the requirements for structural health monitoring can be quite different from those of aircraft structures. This chapter examines the potential impact of structural health monitoring on the space structures and their requirements for such applications. The focus is on diagnosing damage autonomously in a space environment and the technology needs for developing such a system at the vehicle design stage.
