NASA senior management commissioned the Entry, Descent and Landing Systems Analysis (EDL-SA) Study in 2008 to identify and roadmap the Entry, Descent and Landing (EDL) technology investments that the agency needed to make in order to successfully land large payloads at Mars for both robotic and exploration or human-scale missions. The year one exploration class mission activity considered technologies capable of delivering a 40-mt payload. This paper provides an overview of the exploration class mission study, including technologies considered, models developed and initial simulation results from the EDL-SA year one effort. © 2010 by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Inc.

... Using the current technology however, it is estimated that only 2 t can be delivered to Mars [1]. Novel entry, descent, and landing (EDL) systems have been proposed including Hypersonic Inflatable Aerodynamic Decelerator (HIAD) [2][3][4], Adaptable Deployable Entry and Placement Technology (ADEPT) [5], Supersonic Retro-Propulsion 979-8-3503-0462-6/24/$31.00 ©2024 IEEE (SRP) [6], mid-lift-over-drag aeroshells [2,7], and high lifting slender entry vehicles with deployable aerosurfaces [8,9]. While each EDL technology has its own advantages and disadvantages, slender entry vehicles have been found to be very promising based on operational simplicity, higher maneuverability, and ability to place more payload mass as compared to other EDL architectures on higher elevation sites present in the Southern hemisphere of Mars [8]. ...
