RECOVERY FROM INTERPLANETARY ORBITS

A Introduction

ln any planetary recovery program there are three bas1c

catego1middotie11 of recovery capsules In order of increasing ~ize

weight and complexity they are

o the instrument capsule

the biocapsule

Q the astronaut capsule (U)

The primary reasons for recovering instrumented probes __

include (l) to determine the effect of the space environment on

space-borne equipment (2) to attempt to simplify the equipment

reduce its complexity and hence improve its reliability and (3)

to develop recovery techniques for the benefit of future orbital

glide programs The scientific datg collected in lthe vicinity of

the target plmet will normally have been telemetered ba~k to

earth however a close review of tha actual pack ~glaquo vbullill enhance

the value of the collected information Future exp~imeots will

permit the development of biosatellites with the ass ranee of

regaining the specimens for proper evalu tioo of r~ middot middot~ts

B Ballistic Vehicles

Our discussion will be limited to the recovery of pulely ballistic

interplanetary vehicles inasmuch as that wi1l most probably be the

design of all initial vehicles in a space recovery program The

sphere is the present prototype of a ballistic space capsule which -

can be used to advantage for recoverable planetary missions Of

course every syn1metric body at zero angle of attack is also a

nonlifting (ie ballistic) body and could be utilized for the flight -

timely recovery Fig 6 shows the command and control network
