Deep Space 1 (DS1) launched from Cape Canaveral on October 24, 1998. During a highly successful primary mission, it tested 12 advanced, high-risk technologies in space. In an extremely successful extended mission, it encountered Comet Borrelly and returned the best images and other science data ever from a comet. During its fully successful hyperextended mission, it conducted further technology tests. The spacecraft was retired on December 18, 2001. The following DS1 technology validation reports were published in Adobe Acrobat Portable Document Format (PDF), the latest of which were created for Acobat Reader 6.0.
