Objectives and Applications
|
EURECA was an ESA space environment exploration mission designed and developed to be recovered from orbit after completion of the mission and returned to Earth. The satellite was designed as a re-usable, multi-disciplinary platform for microgravity, science and technology missions. The main objective of the recovery mission was the post-flight study of environmental effects (meteoroids and space debris impact) and wear-out mechanisms to the spacecraft and its payload.
