First Stage Reentry. The first stage and second stage
are completely reusable and require ascent
and reentry environments. |
 |
Second Stage Reentry: This project included
developing, integrating and analyzing design
flight instrumentation for the vehicle.
|
The projects we support include:
- Development of the Space Shuttle Main Engine (including a test program to validate the Block II upgrade)
- Design and development of Ares I propulsion systems (such as the Reaction Control System, the Roll Control System, the Booster Separation Motors, and the Ullage Settling Motors)
- Deployment of a Solid Rocket Motor cold flow facility to test the Ares five-segment 1st stage internal acoustical and flow
environment
- Support the design, development and integration of a diverse set of payloads, such as the microgravity glove-box, for the International Space Station (ISS)
- Design development and flight testing of the WB-57 Ascent Video Experiment (WAVE project)
- Design and development of the Ares I and Ares V launch systems, including structures, assemblies, handling equipment, launch environments, and ground processing of Ares elements
- Development of a complete set of aerothermal design environments for a commercial two-stage launch vehicle, including determining the aeroheating, pressures, shear levels, aeroacoustics, and venting boundary conditions for a complete time history.
