Starliner Emergency Detection System

Launching a spaceship is complex and dangerous.  But the Atlas V Starliner Emergency Detection System (EDS) can detect an emergency faster than you can blink your eye!  Engineers simulate emergencies hundreds of times to make sure the hardware is ready to fly and keep astronauts safe.

The EDS has some unique technology developed for the Atlas V Starliner designed to monitor the health of the rocket.  The video below explains some of it.
