Description
Capabilities Covered
This lesson covers the following STK Capabilities:
STK Pro
Astrogator
Analysis Workbench
Problem Statement
Engineers and operators require a quick way to design high-fidelity spacecraft trajectories for mission planning and operations. In this scenario, they will design a launch from an initial state to the Sun-Earth Lagrange 1 point.
Solution
Use STK’S Astrogator and Analysis Workbench capabilities to build and propagate the various sequences of launching a satellite to Sun-Earth L1. The goal of this tutorial is to model a mission to the vicinity of the Sun-Earth L1 point.
What You Will Learn
Upon completion of this tutorial, you will be able to:
Create custom geometry and calculations for Lagrange points
Configure the magnitude of the injection thrust
Understand the effects of perturbations on the mission
Model station keeping at Sun-Earth L1
Video Guidance
Watch the following video. Then follow the steps below, which incorporate the systems and missions you work on (sample inputs provided).
