.@nasaβs LOFTID (Low-Earth Orbit Flight Test of an Inflatable Decelerator) mission will fly on a ULA #AtlasV mission. LOFTID is a pathfinder for NASAs mission to mars and a pathfinder for ULA engine recovery. @torybruno#ISDC2019
Our US colleagues have done great progress in inflatable technologies. How will differ the European application? Keep tuned on @EfestoH2020.
