VENUS EXPRESS AEROBRAKING
2011
Abstract Venus Express has been orbiting Venus for 5 years. It was originally designed to use aerobraking as a back-up in case of main engine failure but this feature has never been activated. This paper presents the analyses and tests performed by Astrium and ESA to demonstrate the actual feasibility of aerobraking in order to prepare the first ever European aerobraking campaign
