Public award description
NASA'S PROGRAM TO ADVANCE INFLATABLE DECELERATORS FOR ATMOSPHERIC ENTRY (PAIDAE) WILL FLIGHT TEST TECHNOLOGY THAT DEMONSTRATES THE FEASIBILITY OF INFLATABLE DECELERATORS THAT CAN OPERATE FROM THE HYPERSONIC TO HIGH SUBSONIC RANGE. A NUMBER OF GOVERNMENT HYPERSONIC FLIGHT TEST PROGRAMS, INCLUDING HY-V, AND HIFIRE, ARE INTERESTED IN FINDING A MEANS OF DECELERATING THEIR TEST PAYLOADS ENOUGH TO RECOVER THEM INTACT. PAIDAE S INFLATABLE AERODYNAMIC DECELERATOR TECHNOLOGY HAS THE POTENTIAL TO PERMIT SUCH A RECOVERY. THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS TASK IS TO CREATE A CONCEPTUAL DESIGN OF A FLIGHT TEST THAT WOULD USE THE INFLATABLE DECELERATOR TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPED ON PAIDAE AND RELATED PROJECTS TO DECELERATE A NOTIONAL 125 KG PAYLOAD.
