STK/Astrogator




STK/Astrogator is a specialized analysis module for interactive orbit maneuver and spacecraft trajectory design. It supports an unlimited series of events for modeling and targeting a spacecraft’s trajectory, including impulsive and finite burns and high-fidelity orbit propagation. Event triggers allow users to focus on overall mission needs without having to perform off-line calculations to set up the problem. It offers tremendous flexibility through the use of customized force models, engine models, and spacecraft attitude, along with the ability to solve for and optimize solutions.

STK/Astrogator provides analysis of the entire trajectory, which can be used as the foundation for an overall STK system analysis, including sensor coverage and constrained station visibility opportunities for quick, easy analysis of the whole picture. Mission segments can be stored with STK scenarios and later edited as the mission proceeds. During flight operations, a user can refine maneuver plans with flight-generated data—such as engine-calibration parameters and actual initial orbits—to produce thruster firing and timing data for command generation. Used with STK Professional Edition, STK/Astrogator generates dramatic 3-D representations of space missions ranging from low-Earth orbit (LEO) to interplanetary trajectories.
