Lunar Dust Mitigation Application to Propulsive Landings

In order to make space more accessible and cost effective, rapid reusability is required for launch vehicles and spacecraft. Lunar Dust has proven to be an unpredictable and problematic factor in past lunar exploration missions by damaging equipment and spacesuits. Vital components found in rocket engines are also damaged during decent and operation on the lunar surface. This project is a collection research and designs of a novel system that protects the main components of rocket engines in order to allow engines to be reusable and allow for space travel more sustainable. This system will also add to mission safety and will be critical for humanity's future presence on the Moon.
