The space environment is undergoing rapid changes with the emergence of new commercial capabilities, and the development of new technologies to improve space sustainability is imperative. In this context, a comprehensive numerical analysis has been performed to investigate the aerodynamic behavior of a deployable reentry system. In the present investigation, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) methods are employed to compute the flowfield structure and for
