The Artemis I mission successfully demonstrated the Orion Multi-Purpose Crew Module ability to perform a skip re-entry with predictive guidance to reach the target splashdown location. Skip re-entry improves the down-range capability for precision landing, allowing Orion to return to the continental United States at any time during the lunar month, and improves the survivability from a wide range of return trajectories. This paper presents analysis of Orion skip re-entry Guidance and Control performance for the Artemis I mission utilizing recorded flight data and high fidelity simulation data. Descriptions of the related Guidance and Control designs are provided for understanding.
