jsc2023e046376 (12/12/2019) --- The Far-Field Diagnostic (FFD) hardware for Spacecraft Fire Experiment-VI (Saffire-VI) is pictured aboard Cygnus before launch. This package contains the Smoke Eater and CO scrubbers, a prototype Combustion Product Monitor to be used on Orion, particulate sensors, and sensors for CO, CO2, and oxygen gases. The containers for the FFD were fabricated by HUNCH (High school students United with NASA to Create Hardware). Their signatures are shown on the side of the FFD. The Saffire series helps researchers to understand realistic fire spread scenarios on spacecraft
