Ares I-X Flight Test Overview Ares I-X is a Constellation Program developmental flight test for the Ares I project • There are five primary flight test objectives – P1 through P5 • Ares I-X is an un-crewed suborbital test ~150,000 feet
P2) Perform in-flight separation/staging ~130,000 feet
P5) Characterize integrated vehicle roll torque
P1) Demonstrate controllability
Flight Test Profile National Aeronautics and Space Administration
Vehicle Height: Weight at Ignition: Max. Acceleration: Max. Speed:
327 feet 1.8 M-lbm 2.5 g Mach 4.8
P4) Demonstrate first stage entry dynamics and post staging sequencing of events (e.g. employ booster tumble motors and deploy parachutes)
Upper Stage/ Crew Module/ Launch Abort System Simulator free fall into ocean First Stage recovery
P3) Demonstrate assembly and recovery of an Ares I similar first stage
