Autonomous Asteroid Characterization Through Nanosatellite Swarming
Kaitlin Dennison, Nathan Stacey, Simone D'Amico
This paper first defines a class of estimation problem called simultaneous navigation and characterization (SNAC), which is a superset of simultaneous localization and mapping (SLA…
Starshade Rendezvous: Exoplanet Orbit Constraints from Multi-Epoch Direct Imaging
Andrew Romero-Wolf, Geoffrey Bryden, Greg Agnes +9
The addition of an external starshade to the {\it Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope} will enable the direct imaging of Earth-radius planets orbiting at 1 AU. Classification o…
Starshade Rendezvous: Exoplanet Sensitivity and Observing Strategy
Andrew Romero-Wolf, Geoffrey Bryden, Sara Seager +33
Launching a starshade to rendezvous with the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope would provide the first opportunity to directly image the habitable zones of nearby sunlike stars in…
Closed-Form Optimal Impulsive Control of Spacecraft Relative Motion Using Reachable Set Theory
Michelle Chernick, Simone D'Amico
This paper addresses the spacecraft relative orbit reconfiguration problem of minimizing the delta-v cost of impulsive control actions while achieving a desired state in fixed time…
Spacecraft Swarm Dynamics and Control About Asteroids
Corinne Lippe, Simone D'Amico
This paper presents a novel methodology to control spacecraft swarms about singleasteroids with arbitrary gravitational potential coefficients. This approach enablesthe use of smal…
Second-Order Solution for Relative Motion on Eccentric Orbits in Curvilinear Coordinates
Matthew Willis, Kyle T. Alfriend, Simone D'Amico
A new, second-order solution in curvilinear coordinates is introduced for the relative motion of two spacecraft on eccentric orbits. The second-order equations for unperturbed orbi…
