Rob Manning and I swopped emails last night - and we think it might make sense to pool all the questions people have about MSL (and specifically MSL's EDL ) into one thread - and then answer as many as make sense either via a Q'n'A in the style of the previous ones I've done with Steve and Jim - or via Rob's typing fingers.
It'll be a few weeks till we sort this out - but submit-away until then Doug |

There was a very very good general review of the TOPS mission proposal in one of the space-aeronautics journals when it was under concept development --- before the no-funding decision and budgetary de-scoping of the mission concept to Mariner Jupiter-Saturn.
I *THINK* it was Astronautics and Aeronautics, but it may have been in Space-Aeronautics. Good engineering libraries should have bound copies. It would be about 1972? 1973?.. not much later than that. |
