Any idea what the experiment was?

I think the flat object on the inside wall was a micro meteorite detector

here are 2 doors that were used on the Black Brant 2 payload section that were jettisoned in flight

That would be a whole new level of scale modeling.

Really, some of the mostly electronic experiments of 60 years ago could be shrunk to fit inside an MPR today. Not that there'd really be any point to it without the altitude.
