FLPP3-DOC Demise Observation Capsule

Obiettivo

The aim is to build a capsule capable of staying attached to the upper stage of the launch vehicle during its demise in the Earth atmosphere.

Once the needed data have been collected the capsule will separate and will complete an autonomous reentry. After the hypersonic part of the flight, the capsule will transmit the data through the global satellite network IRIDIUM.
