Throughout the past few decades, the demand for farther and more massive missions have increased significantly, especially with the recent push for manned missions to Mars as well as the growing sci- entific interest in the outer giant planets and their re- spective moons. While spacecraft have successfully made it to the surface of Mars and into a flyby of the outer planets, the technologies from these missions are reaching the threshold of their capabilities. These tradi- tional methods are inadequate for higher mass and outer planetary missions due to the inherent propellant mass constraints of using fully-propulsive orbital insertion. Thus, there has been an ongoing effort to introduce new methods of deceleration and flight control during plan- etary EDL to reduce the required orbital insertion pro- pellant mass and enable new missions. One of the most prominently proposed solutions is aerocapture.
