| Abstract: | NASA senior management commissioned the Entry, Descent and Landing Systems Analysis (EDL-SA) Study in 2008 to identify and roadmap Entry, Descent and Landing (EDL) technology investments needed to develop technologies to successfully land large payloads at Mars for both robotic and human-scale missions. This report summarizes the work the Mars Science Laboratory Improvement (MSL-I) team carried out as part of Phase 2 of the study in 2010. The MSL-I study assessed seven Mars EDL technologies selected for their near-term potential to incrementally improve the performance of the Mars Science Laboratory EDL system. The assessment was made based on landed mass performance, mechanical implementation, cost, risk and crosscutting applicatbility. |
