Refining space mission interoperability: NASA unveils new trajectory sharing strategy

Los Angeles CA (SPX) Apr 26, 2024

NASA's Engineering and Safety Center has introduced a new approach, dubbed Trajectory Reverse Engineering (TRE), for transferring spacecraft trajectories between flight mechanics tools. This method is designed to be adaptable, making it suitable for use with any pair of tools despite differences in their dynamical and numerical models. Developed as part of the NESC study titled Flight Mech
