Abstract

Objective: To provide the basis for medical evaluation of spacecraft, and to measure the impact acceleration of return-cabin of spacecraft.

Method: A facility to measure the impact acceleration of "SZ-3" and "SZ-4" during landing was developed and the acquired test data were analyzed.

Result: The data of impact acceleration of return-cabins of "SZ-3" and "SZ-4" were accurately recorded during landing. Most reliable and scientific data were gotten.

Conclusion: This facility could validate and evaluate the specifications of relevant systems of spacecraft, and provided the scientific basis for the decision if "SZ-5", the manned spacecraft, could be launched.
