摘要
APL and the Marshall Space Flight Center have been working together since 2005 to develop technologies and mission concepts for a new generation of small, versatile robotic landers to land on airless bodies, including the moon and asteroids, in our solar system. As part of this larger effort, APL and the Marshall Space Flight Center worked with the Von Braun Center for Science and Innovation to construct a prototype monopropellant-fueled robotic lander that has been given the name Mighty Eagle. This article provides an overview of the lander's architecture; describes the guidance, navigation, and control system that was developed at APL; and summarizes the flight test program of this autonomous vehicle.
