Explore the design of a low-cost, commercial cargo return vehicle for the International Space Station in this informative seminar presentation. Delve into the innovative Universal Return Vehicle (URV) concept, which combines a modified NASA elliptical heat-shield with modern subsystems, advanced guidance and control, and automotive-grade parts adapted for space applications. Learn about the vehicle's concept of operations, potential applications beyond ISS payload return, and the risk-managed approach to its development. Gain insights from Tim Crain, Vice President of Research and Development at Intuitive Machines, as he discusses aerodynamics, reentry analysis, propulsion systems, thermal analysis, and flight software. Examine the challenges faced at Mach 5 and understand the complexities involved in designing automated re-entry vehicles for priority sample returns.
