Entry Descent and Landing Workshop ProceedingsObjectives: Measure Pressure: a) Confirm spacecraft aerodynamics. b) Independently measure attitude. c) Determine density profile. d) Determine wind component. Measure Temperature: a) Verify heating levels on spacecraft surface. b) Determine recession amount and rate. c) Validate material response at Mars conditions. The better we understand the Mars entry environment, the better we can design the next spacecraft.
