摘要
Aerocapture at planets and moons with atmospheres using a towed, inflatable ballute system has the potential to provide significant performance benefits compared to traditional all propulsive and aeroshell based aerocapture technologies. This paper discusses the characteristics of entry trajectories for ballute aerocapture at Titan. These trajectories are the first steps in a larger systems analysis effort that is underway to characterize and optimize the performance of a ballute aerocapture system for future missions to Titan.
