PL&HA and SPLICE Overview
Abstract
Guidance, Navigation and Control (GN&C) technologies for precise and safe landing are essential for future robotic science and human exploration missions to solar system destinations with targeted surface locations that pose a significant risk to successful landing and subsequent mission operations. These Entry, Descent and Landing (EDL) technologies are a part of the NASA domain called PL&HA (Precision Landing and Hazard Avoidance) and are considered high priority capabilities within the space technology roadmaps from NASA and the National Research Council (NRC). The PL&HA technologies promote and enable new missions concepts to solar system destinations.
