Scientific paper

A ballistic reentry vehicle using a single, fixed-impulse deorbit burn is examined. Significant modeling assumptions (i.e., circular orbit and spherical earth) are made to enable a closed-form solution of the equations of motion and the targeting problem. The analytic method is implemented in a spreadsheet, allowing wide-ranging parametric studies to be conducted quickly in the preliminary design phase of reentry vehicle programs. The dispersion footprint of the Commercial Experiment Transporter Recovery System from a 300-nm orbit landing at the Utah Test and Training Range is illustrated.
