This idea is from my 2009 lab notebook along with utilizing two docked Dragons as aerodynamic decelerators.Will add to this post over time…….
payload fairing/shroud as upper stage deorbiting mechanisms…..
CONOPS; The Galileo Jupiter probe failed communications antenna had a mesh antenna so our payload fairing could deploy a mesh antenna or solar arrays or SIGINT/ELINT eavesdropping antenna hundreds of M3
