Large spacecraft fall out of orbit and re-enter the atmosphere at the end of their lifetime,and they can break up into small debris upon re-entry.The spacecraft debris generated by the disintegration may lead to high ...
Spacecraft collision avoidance procedures have become an essential part of satellite operations.Complex and constantly updated estimates of the collision risk between orbiting objects inform various operators who can ...
The number of operational satellites and debris objects in the valuable geosynchronous ring has increased steadily over time such that active debris removal missions are necessary to ensure long-term stability. These ...
We are very grateful to the organizers of the 8th China Trajectory Optimization Competition for the interesting and complex problem;Most methods presented in this paper were developed under the National Natural Science Foundation of China(Nos.11172036,11572037,and 11402021);the Excellent Young Scholars Research Fund of Beijing Institute of Technology(No.2015YG0101).
A method is proposed to select the target sequence for a J 2-perturbed multiple debris rendezvous mission aimed at removing dozens of debris from several thousand debris candidates running on sun-synchronous orbits(SS...
