Ditching investigation of a 1/20-scale model of the space shuttle orbiter [PDF]

open access: yes
The ditching characteristics of the space shuttle orbiter were examined. Tests were made with a 1/20-scale model in order to determine behavior patterns and accelerations imparted to the ditching vehicle. Ditchings were made with different configurations
