Esteemed people: I am looking for some information to help my fiancee
(we are both Aerospace majors here) on re-entry profiles of the Shuttle
in terms of drag, heating, velocities involved, trajectory planning etc.
(she is involved in a design project for a Space Station emergency return
to Earth vehicle, it was known as CERV, NASA just renamed it as "there won't
be any emergencies at the station. It's know an ACRV or something like that-
I'm an airplane design type and she's not here <-=). Also, a paper on Satellite
/Space Station power sources is being planned. Any suggestions on availible
information on nuclear/solar/chemical power as used in orbit, in the form of
texts/references as well as someone that might have the ability to answer
more detialed inquiries by E-mail or USMail, I would appreciate a E-mail
reply as I've not been able to keep up w/ all of the group postings recently.
Thanks much for your time/interest. -- G
