Textbook in PDF format
This interdisciplinary book combines the astronomical and the engineering approaches to those questions of space research which are known as orbit and trajectory problems. The application of a highly developed mathematical science which is soundly embedded in hundreds of years of tradition to the newest engineering problems is one of the most challenging tasks to representatives of both fields. This book intends to meet this challenge by covering the most significant and recent developments in a systematic, though not at all textbook like, manner. It is prepared for the worker in the
field with background in celestial mechanics and with familiarity with the engineering problems. The chapters are organized according to the major functional subjects of space dynamics rather than along operational lines. Indeed, it is aimed at the discussion, first, of general ideas, and then these
are interspersed with examples
