Julia Moon Cannon: Prelude Summary The document discusses a project titled 'Moon Cannon: Prelude,' which explores the feasibility of launching a payload from the Moon to Earth using a cannon. The author uses Julia's DifferentialEquations package to simulate the trajectory, simplifying the problem by considering only the gravitational forces of
Space Vulcan and BE-4 Inaugural Flight Explore the landmark ULA and Blue Origin launch at Cape Canaveral, a defining moment in space exploration.
Orbital Debris Space Debris Characterization Using Machine Learning Methods Summary The document discusses a research proposal focused on addressing the growing threat of orbital debris, which poses significant risks to space infrastructure. Current models used by NASA are based on 2D images and lack crucial features for accurate modeling. The proposed approach utilizes high-resolution 3D scanning to capture the
Julia ISS Eclipse Determination Summary The website projects.ansonbiggs.com discusses the importance of determining the eclipses a satellite will encounter during space missions, as this affects thermal and power budgets. An eclipse involves the umbra (complete darkness) and penumbra (partial shadow), with the International Space Station (ISS) spending minimal time in the penumbra
