  8. Honor Code • You are expected to follow the Honor Code • We will treat you as an engineer in the field as practice for your career. • This course teaches you to navigate spacecraft. Spacecraft are worth many $Millions. Don’t crash them. • You can work together, but give each other credit when credit is due. We use software to detect plagiarism. The Honor Code will be enforced. • If you’re concerned about your grade, please come talk to us rather than cheating.

  9. Homework • Homework Policy • Assigned on a Tuesday • Due 9 days later (a week from Thursday) • You are encouraged to work with others. • Turn in your own work. • If you work with others, give them credit – this is totally fine for most things! • Behave according to the Honor Code • Turn in a searchable PDF to the D2L Dropbox • There are free PDF converters if you need it. • Encouraged to use LaTex / pdflatex • Late policy • It should be on-time (practice for careers in engineering!). But it’s better correct and late than incorrect and on-time for this course.

  29. Review of Astrodynamics Problem of Two Bodies µ = G(M1 + M2) XYZ is nonrotating, with zero acceleration; an inertial reference frame

  30. Review of Astrodynamics • How many degrees of freedom are present to fit the orbits of 2 bodies in mutual gravitation (known masses, no SRP, no drag, no perturbations) • 2 • 4 • 6 • 12

  32. Integrals of Motion • Center of mass of two bodies moves in straight line with constant velocity • Angular momentum per unit mass (h) is constant, h = r x V = constant, where V is velocity of M2 with respect to M1, V= dr/dt • Consequence: motion is planar • Energy per unit mass (scalar) is constant

  33. Orbit Plane in Space Statistical Orbit Determination University of Colorado at Boulder

  34. Equations of Motion in the Orbit Plane The uθcomponent yields: which is simply h = constant

  35. Solution of ur Equations of Motion • The solution of the ur equation is (as function of θ instead of t): where e and ω are constants of integration.

  36. The Conic Equation • Constants of integration: e and ω • e = ( 1 + 2 ξ h2/µ2 )1/2 • ω corresponds to θ where r is minima • Let f = θ – ω, then r = p/(1 + e cos f) which is “conic equation” from analytical geometry (e is conic “eccentricity”, p is “semi-latus rectum” or “semi-parameter”, and f is the “true anomaly”) • Conclude that motion of M2 with respect to M1 is a “conic section” • Circle (e=0), ellipse (0<e<1), parabola (e=1), hyperbola (e>1) Statistical Orbit Determination University of Colorado at Boulder

  37. Types of Orbital Motion Statistical Orbit Determination University of Colorado at Boulder

  38. The Orbit and Time • If angle f is known, r can be determined from conic equation • Time is preferred independent variable instead of f • Introduce E, “eccentric anomaly” related to time t by Kepler’s Equation: E – e sin E = M = n (t – tp) where M is “mean anomaly” Statistical Orbit Determination University of Colorado at Boulder

  39. Orbit in Space • h = constant • Components of h: • hX, hY, hZ • Inclination, i (angle between Z-axis and h), 0 ≤ i≤ 180° • Line of nodes is line of intersection between orbit plane and (X,Y) plane • Ascending node (AN) is point where M2 crosses (X,Y) plane from –Z to +Z • Ω is angle from X-axis to AN Statistical Orbit Determination University of Colorado at Boulder

  40. Six Orbit Elements • The six orbit elements (or Kepler elements) are constant in the problem of two bodies (two gravitationally attracting spheres, or point masses) • Define shape of the orbit • a: semimajoraxis • e: eccentricity • Define the orientation of the orbit in space • i: inclination • Ω: angle defining location of ascending node (AN) • : angle from AN to perifocus; argument of perifocus • Reference time: • tp: time of perifocus(or mean anomaly at specified time) Statistical Orbit Determination University of Colorado at Boulder

  44. Satellite in orbit • μ=GM • How do we measure G and M? • We can’t in this way! • Only one is observable using Statistical Orbit Determination • This is why μ is very well known, but G is not.

  45. End of Lecture 1 • This is a good place to stop for today • Any questions? • Notes. Quiz 1 is already available. • HW 1 is on the websites and will be due Thursday, 9/6/2012.
