From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Space Shuttle Engine Cutoff Sensors are located in the external tank (ET) of the Space Shuttle system. These sensors provide flight controls with the level of propellant in liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen tanks on board the ET. The level of propellants is critical to computers that control the space shuttle main engines as major damage may occur to the engines if improper fuel mixture occurs in the engine.
