NASA announced that it had made its Morning Report flight-safety software available for licensing. Scientists at NASA's ARC had created the Morning Report as part of NASA's Aviation System Monitoring and Modeling Project. The Morning Report, a flight-data-analysis software tool, could help flight-operations analysts automatically identify potentially problematic aircraft flights ~ flights with a high statistical probability of experiencing problems that could lead to an accident or another major problem. (NASA, “NASA Develops New Tool for Airline Accident Prevention,” news release 04-297, 15 September 2004.

NASA awarded a US$814 million contract to Hamilton Sundstrand Space Systems International (HSSSI) to provide equipment and services supporting spacewalks performed by Space Shuttle and ISS crew members. Under the contract ~ formally called the Extravehicular Activity (EVA) Systems Contract ~ Hamilton Sundstrand would provide EVA hardware, training support, real-time mission support, and other products and services related to spacewalks. The contract had a five-year base period and five additional one-year options. (NASA, “NASA Awards Extravehicular Activity Systems Contract,” news release C04-v, 15 September 2004.
