Vented Tank Resupply Experiment (VTRE)

The Vented Tank Resupply Experiment (VTRE) will test the performance of Capillary Acquisition Vanes for future spacecraft liquid storage tanks. These vanes are designed to keep liquid from inadvertently venting from a tank during refilling or pressure relief operations in the zero gravity of orbit. Flown on STS-77
