Summary
Main Focus is the investigation of in-flight LOX-collection aboard a (Two-Stage-To-Orbit) TSTO reusable space transport very similar to the SÄNGER concept. In previous research activities a suitable design point for vehicle and LOX-collection system has been determined. Starting from this, variations of essential design parameters are discussed to identify and evaluate influences and risks on the complete system.
