Parachutes in spaceflight
Parachutes and other aerodynamic decelerators have been used extensively in spaceflight and activities above the Armstrong limit. The extreme environments in which (near-)spaceflight is conducted have necessitated the development of parachute systems designed to withstand them in order to enable consistently reliable recovery or slow down spacecraft for prolonged data gathering or landing. Parachutes also serve a vital role in human spaceflight and save lives during emergencies involving astronauts. Inflatable decelerators for aerocapture and deorbiting satellites without the need for propellant have been proposed and are being developed for future missions.
The development of parachutes for space have benefitted all areas where parachutes have been put to use. Although they have been a part of spaceflight for as long as it exists, parachutes are still considered among the most difficult technologies to develop in aerospace, largely because of the difficulties associated with predicting their behavior and that of their deployment systems.[1] Despite this, and the rise of technologies enabling reliable deceleration and recovery without the help of parachutes,[2] they are still favored over those technologies, largely because of their relatively low cost and risk, low weight, small storage volume requirements and wide applicability.
