This paper will present an overview of all three ASPIRE flights. First, the Test Architecture that was used for all three ASPIRE flights will be presented. This will be broken down into an explanation of the Concept of Operations (CONOPS),the parachute test articles, the data sources used, and the process that was used to reconstruct the flight trajectories and parachute performance. Next, the performance and results for all three ASPIRE flights will be presented in the order of the phases of flight. Lastly this paper will discuss the Conclusions and Lessons Learned from those results and from the ASPIRE project as a whole.
