What Does FTS Stand For?
FTS stands for Flight Telerobotic Servicer
The Flight Telerobotic Servicer (FTS) is an advanced robotic system designed to perform maintenance, repairs, and servicing tasks in space environments. Utilizing remote teleoperation capabilities, the FTS enables operators on Earth to control robotic arms and tools in real-time, facilitating efficient and precise interventions on spacecraft and satellites. This technology enhances the sustainability of space operations by reducing the need for astronaut involvement in challenging and potentially hazardous repair missions.
