Full Transcript

The entry to earth or other planets for a spacecraft is considered and the equation for ballistic entry is derived. The exponential atmosphere is obtained from the standard atmosphere. The ballistic parameter is explained and the problems of deceleration and aerodynamic heating taking place in atmospheric re-entry for space vehicles is explained. #aerospaceengineering #spacecraft #aerospaceengineeringgatepreparation
