Analog Simulation of Piloted Earth Reentry at Parabolic VelocityPiloted earth reentry at parabolic velocity was satisfactorily simulated by employing analog computing equipment. The ability of a pilot to control a spacecraft and to perform long- and short-range navigation tests was determined, In simulated emergency conditions the pilot accomplished a safe entry with a display presentation of only bank angle and longitudinal acceleration.
