An up-to-date, thorough treatment of the standard, planetary aspects of celestial mechanics as well as the more modern problems of rockets and spacecraft. Sections on initial orbit determination, perturbation theory, and astrophysics are unique in…

De zon komt 's ochtend op en gaat 's avonds weer onder. Dat is een ding dat zeker is. Of niet? Er zijn streken waar de zon maandenlang op is en er zijn plekken op de wereld waar de zon op speciale dagen volgens de plaatselijke klokken pas rond 2 uur…

The Explanatory Supplement provides a detailed description of how to perform practical astronomy or spherical astronomy. This completely revised and rewritten edition is an authoritative source on astronomical phenomena and calendars.

This book provides an introduction to classical celestial mechanics. It is based on lectures delivered by the authors over many years at both Padua University (MC) and V.N. Karazin Kharkiv National University (EB). The book aims to provide a…

Teaching text developed by U.S. Air Force Academy and designed as a first course emphasizes the universal variable formulation. Develops the basic two-body and n-body equations of motion; orbit determination; classical orbital elements, coordinate…

This book gives a review of the necessary math knowledge, and then explains many aspects of celestial mechanics. It is a little less sophisticated than other books on the market.

Science is based not only on observation and experiment, but on theory as well. As Einstein said, "Theory tells us what to measure." And theories are often crystallized into succinct calculations, like those made using Einstein's famous E = mc2. This…
