This project is optional. Students who successfully attempt the project will earn up to five (5) points, which
will be added to the final score.
Abstract.
Introduction.
System approach and solution with explanation of all equations.
Implementation and explanation of MATLAB code.
Simulation results.
Conclusions.
Notes:
EVERY equation and EVERY figure needs to be labeled and have a detailed
explanation as to its purpose/usage.
Explain your reasoning for EVERYTHING such that anyone with only a basic
understanding of dynamics can understand it. Your ideas should flow clearly
through your report from start to finish.
You are writing a professional report; any opinion/conclusion must be supported
by facts and experimental/simulated evidence.
Keep everything SHORT but CLEAR.
Appendix
S-IVB-206
The moon does not orbit the earth, i.e. the earth and moon are both stationary.
Consider the problem as 2D only.
The mass of the rocket ship remains constant.
Assume the ship is initially in a circular orbit 200 km above the earth.
Another NASA team has already determined that based on the launch location and
time, the TLI burn will be initiated at the location shown (NOT drawn to scale)
