DATA-CHASER consists of two synergetic projects, DATA and CHASER, which flew together as a hitchhiker payload aboard the Space Shuttle Discovery in August of 1997. CHASER (Colorado Hitchhiker And Student Experiment of solar Radiation) is a solar science experiment used to test the primary DATA payload. A technology experiment, DATA (Distribution and Automation Technology Advancement) seeks to advance human support technology. Specifically, the DATA technologies support cooperative operations originating from different geographic sites as well as between humans and machines.
