Trajectory Is a Key Space Technology

• Golden Age of Trajectory Technology Just Around Corner

• Trajectory Is a Mission-Enabling, Intellectual Technology– Not All Technology Is Hardware!

• Space H/W Technology and Trajectory MUST Develop Side by Side– Like “Rail Road Tracks” for the Train– Example: Ion Engines Have Been Around a Long Time, Their Use

Have Been Limited by the Lack of ‘Low Thrust’ Trajectory Design Tools

Lagrange Points in Earth’s Neighborhood

• Every 3 Body System Has 5 Fixed Points Called Lagrange Points

– Earth-Moon-S/C: LL1, LL2, … LL5

– Sun-Earth-S/C: EL1, EL2, …

• They Generate the InterPlanetary Superhighway

• Unstable Periodic Orbits– Generate the Tubes

– Portals to the Tubes

• The Tubes Govern Transport– Transport Must Occur Thru Tubes

– Systematically Map Out Orbit Space

• Green Tube = Stable Manifold: Orbits Approach the L1 Periodic Orbit, No V Needed

• Red Tube = Unstable Manifold: Orbits Leave the L1 Periodic Orbit

Why Dynamical Systems Theory?• Traditional Approach

– Requires First Hand Numerical Knowledge of Phase Space

– Each Trajectory Must Be Computed Manually (VERY SLOW)

– Cannot Perform Extensive Parametric Study or Montecarlo Simulation

– Optimization Difficult, Nearly Impossible

• Dynamical Systems Theory Provides – S/W Automatic Generation of Trajectories

– S/W Automatically Maps Out Phase Space Structures

– Near Optimum Trajectory

– Automatable Parametric Studies & Montecarlo Simulations

N(i ,j) , i = Sun, L1, Jupiter, L2, Xsun; j = 1, 2, 3, …

N(i ,j) = Number of Revolutions Around Body(I), Called an ITINERARY

• THEOREM: There Exist an Orbit Which Realizes N(i ,j).

• Based on Conley-Moser’s Theorem on Symbolic Dynamics

• Voila! TEMPORARY CAPTURE BY DESIGN

IPS a New Pardigm of the Solar System

• InterPlanetary Superhighway Connects Entire Solar System

– Instead of Planets In Isolated Separate Conic Orbits

– Solar System Is An Organic and Integrated Whole Where Each Part Is Communicating with One Another

– Governs Transport and Morphology of Materials

• Shape Morphology of Rings and Belts

• Contributes to Theory of Motions of Comets, Asteroids, Dust

• Governs Planetary Impacts from Asteroids and Comets

– ShoemakerLevy9 Follwed Jupiter IPS to Final Impacts

– Genesis Trajectory Is an Impact Trajectory

– 1% of Near Earth Objects In Energy Regime of Genesis Trajectory, Considered Most Danerous

• This Theory Contributes to Understanding of our Origins

Transport Between the Jovian Moons

• Cross Section of Manifolds Plotted in {a, e} Elements

• L1 Manifold of Europa Intersects L2 Manifold of Ganymede, etc.

• Provide Transport Between Moons

• May Require V

– Much Lower than Hohmann

Petit Grand Tour of Jovian Moons

Mission Concept Flexible Itinerary, Visit Jovian Moons in Any Order

User Low Energy Transfer, Capture, Impact

Near Circular Orbits Reduce Jupiter Radiation

Proof of Concept Point Design Using the Interplanetary Superhighway 25 Day Transfer from Ganymede to Europa

Requires DV of 1452 m/s!

Compare to Hohmann Transfer of 2822 m/s!

• To Design Low Thrust Orbits, You Must Understand IPS

• Computed from Single Orbit Leaving Europa L2

– Each Dot Is a Rev Around Jupiter

– Spirals Towards Europa

– Eccentricity Grows

• Full of Useful Unstable Orbits

– Similar to L1/L2 Halo’s

– More Tubes!

• Indistiguishable from Conic Orbits

• New Low Thrust Trajectory Design

– Use This Transition as First Guess

New Approach to Low Thrust Orbits

IPS Technology Road Map

Three Steps: Discover, Understand, Apply

• Map the InterPlanetary Superhighway– First Step in Discovery and Exploration– Like “Human GENOME”, “Star Catalogs”, Rand McNally Maps

• Integrate Orbital Dynamics Theories– IPS Orbits– Continuous Thrust Orbits– Conics Orbits

• Develop New Mission Concepts
