During this task, which was held jointly with the US Air Force and NASA Research Laboratory, valuable data on how to work in extreme temperature and speed conditions were collected. In the capsule, there was a special Ossen sensor designed to examine the plasma environment created at the high speed input to the atmosphere – the conditions that cannot be completely reproduced on the ground.
The W-2 capsule, which reached a speed of more than 15, has made it possible to obtain information that can improve the design of hypersonic devices and sensor technology in real time, in real time. In addition, this was the first commercial landing of the spacecraft in Australia.
