The Orbiter Experiments (OEX) Program

Abstract

The objective of the Orbiter Experiments (OEX) program is to obtain research quality flight data for the augmentation and advancement of space transportation technologies. This includes the validation and advancement of analytical theories and of ground-test methods and techniques. The following topics are discussed: aerothermodynamic design tool development and validation; the freestream environment; trajectory reconstruction; atmospheric reconstruction; the Shuttle Entry Air Data System (SEADS); the Shuttle Upper Atmosphere Mass Spectrometer (SUMS); and aerodynamic forces and moments. The discussion is presented in vugraph form.
