As a crew member of the STS-55 Space Shuttle mission and a full professor of astronautics at the Technical University of Munich, Ulrich Walter is an acknowledged expert in the field. This book is based on his extensive teaching and work with students, and the text is backed up by numerous examples drawn from his own experience. With its end-of-chapter examples and problems, this work is suitable for graduate level or even undergraduate courses in spaceflight, as well as for professionals working in the space industry. This third edition includes substantial revisions of several sections to extend their coverage. These include both theoretical extensions such as the study of relative motion in near-circular orbits, and more practical matters such as additional details about jet-engine and general rocket performance. New sections address regularized equations of orbital motion and their algebraic solutions and also state vector propagation; two new chapters are devoted to orbit geometry and orbit determination and to thermal radiation physics and modelling. 606 $aVol espacial$2lemac 606 $aAerospace engineering 606 $aAstronautics 606 $aSpace sciences 606 $aMechanics 606 $aGravitation 606 $aAerospace Technology and Astronautics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T17050 606 $aSpace Sciences (including Extraterrestrial Physics, Space Exploration and Astronautics)$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22030 606 $aClassical Mechanics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P21018 606 $aClassical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19070 615 7$aVol espacial. 615 0$aAerospace engineering. 615 0$aAstronautics. 615 0$aSpace sciences. 615 0$aMechanics. 615 0$aGravitation. 615 14$aAerospace Technology and Astronautics. 615 24$aSpace Sciences (including Extraterrestrial Physics, Space Exploration and Astronautics). 615 24$aClassical Mechanics. 615 24$aClassical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theory. 676 $a629.4 700 $aWalter$b Ulrich$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01064434 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910311939703321 996 $aAstronautics$92537965 997 $aUNINA
