The 1963 patent for the space capsule, filed by NASA engineers, marked a significant advancement in space exploration technology. The design focused on creating a re-entry vehicle capable of safely returning astronauts from space to Earth. Key innovations included a heat shield to withstand the intense temperatures of re-entry, a parachute system for controlled descent, and a compact, aerodynamic shape. This patent was crucial in the development of the capsules used in missions like Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo, paving the way for human spaceflight.
