Proximity Operations Sensors Demonstration, SpaceTech-REDDI-2021

This document provides the final report on the Proximity Operations Sensors Demonstration SpaceTech-REDDI-2021 program, a public-private partnership between Blue Origin and NASA that is partially funded by NASA contract 80NSSC22K0842. In this report, we summarize the results of the entire contract, including recommendations and conclusions based on the experience and results obtained.

The scope of this document is a discussion of all the major tasks performed under the contract, including the sensor flight demonstrations on New Shepard. Two sensor demonstration flights were completed, one for the vision-based navigation sensing demonstration and one for ultrawideband sensing proximity and landing sensing demonstrations.
