Description: Space Mission Analysis and Design by J.R. Wertz, Wiley J. Larson Draws on leading aerospace experts to carry readers through mission design, from orbit selection to ground ops. This title provides emphasis on small spacecraft design and the cost-reduction process, and includes details on multi-satellite manufacturing, space computers, payload design and autonomous systems. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description This famous and practical handbook for Space Mission Engineering draws on leading aerospace experts to carry readers through mission design, from orbit selection to ground ops. SMAD III updates the technology, provides greater emphasis on small spacecraft design and the cost-reduction process, and includes more detail on multi-satellite manufacturing, space computers, payload design and autonomous systems. Notes The book is a comprehensive presentation of theory and practice, drawing on the insight and practical knowledge of leading experts from all segments of the aerospace community.Because of its practical orientation, useful data and formulas, and process tables which summarize the design methodology of all major mission elements, SMAD has become the most widely used volume in astronautics.
