Beschreibung : LOFTID (Low Earth Orbit Flight Test of an Inflatable Decelerator) is an orbital reentry flight demonstration of advanced inflatable aeroshell to validate structural and thermal performance against mission relevant flight conditions.

The Low-Earth Orbit Flight Test of an Inflatable Decelerator (LOFTID) is a public private partnership between NASA`s Space Technology Mission Directorate and United Launch Alliance (ULA). The LOFTID project is poised to revolutionize the way NASA and industry deliver payloads to a planet`s surface or into orbit, utilizing aerodynamic forces instead of propulsion.
