Gravity Poppers: Hopping Probes for the Interior Mapping of Small Solar System Bodies
Gravity Poppers: Hopping Probes for the Interior Mapping of Small Solar System Bodies Gravity Poppers are small, minimalistic probes that hop around the surface of small solar system bodies, allowing for precise gravity field mapping and interior density reconstruction. The concept relies on a mother spacecraft tracking a swarm of poppers from orbit to estimate […]
