A couple of other RTEMS space applications -- I have been meaning to  
update the Wiki with some info.

1. The ST-5 mission is in orbit and has finished it's 90 day mission  
objectives:

Each satellite in ST-5 has a Mongoose V Processor, which is a MIPS  
R3000 variant. They are running RTEMS, of course:)

2. The Solar Dynamics Observatory ( SDO ) will launch in August '08.

The SDO satellite has 5 Radiation Hardened Coldfire CPUs running RTEMS.
It also has a RAD750 PPC running vxWorks.
