Flight test of a supersonic decelerator on Earth to simulate a Mars entry
A systems analysis is presented for simulation of the descent of a decelerator (parachute) and spacecraft for entry through the atmosphere of the planet Mars by a flight test in the Earth's atmosphere. Engineering atmosphere models for Mars are defined and based on these models requirements for...
