Researchers used a pair of powerful supercomputers to simulate the potential trajectories of 1 million satellites in a ...
Scientists at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory simulated one million satellite orbits in the vast stretch of space ...
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory utilized supercomputers to discover approximately 97,000 stable orbits between Earth and the Moon for future satellite missions.
(via Minute Physics) How do we truly know if something is orbiting something else? You may be familiar with the barycenter test, but you may not have heard of the better "Trojan test"!
Even most rocket scientists would rather avoid hard math when they don't have to do it. So when it comes to figuring out orbits in complex three-body systems, like those in cis-lunar space, which is ...
NASA visual shows how moon never shows 'dark side' A NASA video illustrates how the moon orbits the Earth in a process known as “synchronous tidal locking”. The Artemis II crew will see that far side.
Titan orbits farther out, moving with steady confidence, whereas Saturn has always handled itself with a sort of serene ...
