Abstract: It is the intent of this paper to describe some results obtained in an area of research which has long been of general interest, yet only with the advent of missile and space vehicle travel has a concentrated effort been made to describe the phenomena. This research is that of studying the behavior of target materials on impact by a meteor or projectile traveling at hypervelocities. Recent advances in hypervelocity guns and explosive devices have made possible the acceleration of projectiles to velocities in excess of 15 km/sec. Concurrently, radiographic and optical techniques have been refined in recent years to a degree which enables the observation of these ultra-rapid phenomena. Together, these advances now make possible a direct and accurate study of hypervelocity cratering, and most important, enable the direct measurement of several parameters previously unknown. This paper directs attention to the use of the latest radiographic and optical equipment to study hypervelocity cratering and high-speed deformation of materials.
