这本书描述了载人和无人任务的太空飞行操作的基本概念。空间飞行器的基本子系统在专门章节中进行了解释,阐述了航天器设计与非常独特的空间环境之间的关系。飞行动力学和地面段要求也会被教授。任务操作分为准备,包括管理方面、执行和规划。深空任务和空间机器人操作属于特例。这本书是根据德国空间操作中心(GSOC)举办的一门课程编写的。
Spacecraft Operations by Thomas Uhlig
The book describes the basic concepts of spaceflight operations, for both, human and unmanned missions. The basic subsystems of a space vehicle are explained in dedicated chapters, the relationship of spacecraft design and the very unique space environment are laid out. Flight dynamics are taught as well as ground segment requirements. Mission operations are divided into preparation including management aspects, execution and planning. Deep space missions and space robotic operations are included as special cases. The book is based on a course held at the German Space Operation Center (GSOC).
