SATELLITE SERVICING PROJECT Hoffer Flow Controls to Provide Space Flight Qualified Flow Solutions for NASA’s Orbital Satellite Servicing Project Hoffer Flow Controls will design, qualify and construct flow measurement solutions under a NASA contract for low flow turbine meters to be used onboard the agency’s Restore-L semi-autonomous satellite refueling service vehicle scheduled for launch in 2019/2020. The project is under development by the agency’s Satellite Servicing Projects Division headquartered at the Goddard Space Flight Center. The project’s mission is to use the vehicle to rendezvous in orbit with an existing satellite, capture the satellite and refuel it with hydrazine in order to extend the satellite’s useful life. The Hoffer flow meters will be used for the fuel flow measurem
