Innovative three legged landing system tested for small body exploration

Beijing, China (SPX) Nov 02, 2023

In an era where the bounds of space exploration are continually being stretched, a team from the Beijing Institute of Spacecraft System Engineering, Harbin Institute of Technology, and Polytechnic University of Milan have made significant strides in the development of landing mechanisms tailored for small celestial bodies. These environments pose unique challenges due to their low gravity and un
