For the first problem, the so-called Pioneer anomaly, a wholly new and innovative method was developed for computing all contributions to the acceleration due to onboard thermal sources. Through a careful analysis of all parts of the spacecraft Pioneer 10 and 11, the application of this methodology has yielded the observed anomalous acceleration. This marks a major achievement, given that this problem remained unsolved for more than a decade. For the second anomaly, the flyby anomaly, a tiny glitch in the velocity of spacecraft that perform gravity assisting maneuvers on Earth, no definitive answer is put forward; however a quite promising strategy for examining the problem is provided and a new mission is proposed. The proposal largely consists in using the Galileo Navigational Satellite System to track approaching spacecraft, and in considering a small test body that approaches Earth from a highly elliptic trajectory.Springer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,2190-5053Space sciencesMathematical physicsAerospace engineeringAstronauticsSpace Sciences (including Extraterrestrial Physics, Space Exploration and Astronautics)https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22030Theoretical, Mathematical and Computational Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19005Aerospace Technology and Astronauticshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T17050Space sciences.Mathematical physics.Aerospace engineering.Astronautics.Space Sciences (including Extraterrestrial Physics, Space Exploration and Astronautics).Theoretical, Mathematical and Computational Physics.Aerospace Technology and Astronautics.629.41Francisco Fredericoauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut792799MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910300417803321Trajectory Anomalies in Interplanetary Spacecraft1773029UNINA
