Introduction to Space Systems and Spacecraft DesignSpace Systems Design
Where do you want to go?Near earth orbit types
• LEO – low earth orbit – 350-1200 km altitude• MEO – medium earth orbit – 10k km – 25k km
altitude• GEO – geostationary orbit – 36k km altitude• GEO – geostationary – inclined – 36k km altitude• Moly (Molniya) – elliptic – 40k km apogee, 5k km
perigee?
Other attributes of orbits• Inclination - angle of the orbit plane above the
equator going from south to north
• Eccentricity – circular or elliptic orbit• Equator crossing time – defines time for pass
predictions
