Scientific paper

The Stratospheric Terrahertz Observatory (STO) is a complex balloon-based far-infrared telescope due to be launched December 2011. Software is an essential part of making the instrument flight-ready. Software is needed to receive and execute commands sent from the ground, to control the mechanical systems, to handle pointing, to monitor instrument status, to correlate observations with calibration and pointing data, and finally to process the data. This poster will give an overview of all of the flight software systems, and will go into detail on a few of them, noting potential pitfalls and ways to avoid them. Depending on the launch date, it may include data taken during the flight. Areas of focus will most likely include data acquisition and processing.
