The Apollo program offered the first opportunity to obtain aerothermodynamic measurements at superorbital velocities on full-scale spacecraft. Four unmanned flight tests were conducted to qualify the Apollo command module heat shield. Aerothermodynamic measurements were made, and data are presented to illustrate the comparison of the flight data with the ground-test results and theoretical predictions.
