Rocket plume-surface interaction is a multi-phase problem characterized by plume flow physics, erosion physics, and ejecta dynamics. All propulsive landers will experience plume-surface interaction. The risks posed by such effects can vary greatly as a function of the local environment, lander concept of operations, configuration, and physical scale. Prior Lunar and Martian landers have overcome challenges posed by these environments, on the basis of scaled ground testing and subsequent flight experience, but the landing systems for present and future missions are planning to operate increasingly outside of NASA's current experience with plume-surface interaction. This presentation discusses the current efforts and status of activities within NASA to progress understanding of fundamental plume-surface interaction physics, the capability to predict resulting environments and effects, and the definition of implications for current and future Lunar and planetary landing systems.
