Extending the capabilities of sounding rocket class experiments
Abstract
A low cost, Shuttle launched short duration free-flyer, known as Spartan that can accommodate sounding rocket class experiments for up to 40 hr of data collection time was developed. A family of retrievable carriers is under construction to accommodate payloads from X-ray astronomy, solar physics, UV astronomy, and studies of Halley's comet. The capabilities, rationale, design, and mission operations of the carriers is discussed.
