Aerothermodynamic and Feasibility Study of a Deployable Aerobraking Re-Entry Capsule

A new small recoverable re-entry capsule with deployable heat shield is analyzed. The possible utilization of the capsule is for safe Earth return of science payloads or data from low Earth orbit at an inexpensive cost, taking advantage of its deployable structure to perform an aerobraking re-entry...
