and development. One of RRM's secondary goals is to validate a Tool-to-Spacecraft contact
dynamics robotics simulation facility developed on the ground in parallel with the RRM flight
hardware by using the performance data collected from all RRM operations. This is the first
step in the plan to expand the Goddard Satellite Servicing Center’s capability to develop and
test future space robotic servicing and assembly missions with a higher degree of assurance.
