Photographs
| Ground-based test 1: Image of
ejecta from a ground-based drop test into JSC-1 at just under 2 m/s impact
speed in vacuum. (21170 bytes.) |
| Ground-based test 1, processed:
Same image as above, color-enhanced to highlight ejecta illuminated by a
laser sheet shining perpendicularly to the camera view. Laser pulses
are 1 msec in duration at 10 msec intervals. (257034 bytes.) |
| Ground-based test 2:
Image of ejecta from a ground-based drop test into JSC-1 at just under 2 m/s
impact speed in vacuum showing ejecta illuminated in two laser pulses.
