Understanding Space
Short course (Online) by TSTI · POA
This course delivers the “big picture” of space missions from concept through operations. This 2 to 3 day course begins with background on using space. Why do we go to space? What types of missions are conducted? How are space missions organized, managed and operated? Attention then turns to basic orbital mechanics to understand opportunities and limitations imposed on missions by fundamental laws of physics. Geostationary, Sun-synchronous and other orbits, as well as interplanetary trajectories, maneuvering, re-entry and launch windows are also discussed. The final section of the course examines space systems including remote sensing and other payloads, human spaceflight challenges as well as an examination of key spacecraft subsystems including rockets and launch vehicles. Course exercises are used to reinforce key topics. Understanding Space is the ideal course for technical or non-technical professionals new to the space industry, those “cross-training” from other disciplines or anyone who needs a refresher on space fundamentals. This course is designed for engineers, scientists, or managers either new to the space field or who want to broaden their understanding of the big picture of space systems and operations.
