The descent module of the Mars 6 automatic interplanetary station is discussed as it entered Martian atmosphere at the velocity 5600 m/sec. After aerodynamic braking on attainment of approximately 600 m/sec, the parachute system was activated. The descent module of the Mars 6 reached the Martian surface in a region with nominal coordinates 23.9 deg S. lat. and 19.5 deg W. long. The descent period, from atmospheric entry and aerodynamic braking to parachute-assisted descent, took 5.2 min. (Author)
