SummaryThis multi-disciplinary course provides a complete
summary of the technologies needed to understand anddevelop spacecraft systems and instrumentation. Thecourse presents a systems engineering approach forunderstanding the design and testing of spacecraftsystems. The course highlights the underlying scientificand engineering foundations needed to develop spacesystems, as well as current practices. Case studies areused to pinpoint the key issues and trade-offs in moderndesign, and to illustrate the lessons learned from pastsuccesses and failures.
This course provides a strong technical base forleadership in systems engineering or the management ofspace systems. Technical specialists will find the broadperspective and knowledge useful in communicating withother space system specialists in analyzing design optionsand trade-offs.
The emphasis will be on how today's technology isincorporated into the planning, designing, fabrication,integration, and testing of modern space systems. Eachparticipant will receive a complete set of notes and theaward-winning textbook Space Systems written by theinstructors. The textbook and course notes provide anauthoritative reference that focuses on proven techniquesand guidelines for understanding, designing, andmanaging modern space systems.
Instructors Dr. Vincent L. Pisacane is a fellow of the AIAA, and is

FUNDAMENTALS OF DYNAMICSKepler’s Laws
1. The orbit of each planet is in the shape of an ellipse with the sun at one of the foci. (1609)
2. The radius vector from the sun to a planet sweeps out equal areas in equal times. (1609)
3. The squares of the periods of the planets are proportional to the cubes of the semi-major axes. (1619)

REFERENCE FRAMESFundamentals
Of fundamental importance in astrodynamics is the motion of the Earth about the Sun.
• Ecliptic plane or ecliptic - plane of Earth’s orbit around the Sun.• Ecliptic pole - axis normal to ecliptic plane.• Celestial equator - plane of earth’s equator.• Celestial pole - pole of celestial equator or axis orthogonal to celestial equator.• Equinox - two points on celestial sphere when the Sun is in celestial equator.• Vernal equinox - where Sun goes from South to the North, first point of Aires.• Celestial or ecliptic longitude - angle from vernal equinox along ecliptic positive to the east.• Celestial or ecliptic latitude - angle positive north from ecliptic in plane through ecliptic pole.• Obliquity - angle between the planes of the ecliptic and the equator.

SOLID PROPULSIONGrain Shapes
Single Grain Star Configuration near constant thrust
Single Grain, Rod and Tube Configuration near constant thrust
Single Grain, Variable Star Configuration boost-sustain-boost thrust
Double Grain, Rod and Tube Configuration two burning rates
• The radial dissipation of fuel will increase the exposed area so that the thrust will increase as a function of time (progressive grain).
• A central void that is star or fin shaped can result in radial burning in a manner so that the area exposed is nearly constant so the thrust is also nearly constant (neutral grain).
• Several different grain configurations are shown in Figure 4.15.
