This book provides a comprehensive analysis of time-fixed terminal
rendezvous around the Earth using chemical propulsion. The book has
two main objectives. The first is to derive the mathematics of
relative motion in near-circular orbit when subjected to
perturbations emanating from the oblateness of the Earth,
third-body gravity, and atmospheric drag. The mathematics are
suitable for quick trajectory prediction and the creation of
computer codes and efficient software to solve impulsive maneuvers
and fly rendezvous missions. The second objective of this book is
to show how the relative motion theory is applied to the exact
precision-integrated, long-duration, time-fixed terminal rendezvous
problem around the oblate Earth for the general elliptic orbit
case. The contents are both theoretical and applied, with
long-lasting value for aerospace engineers, trajectory designers,
professors of orbital mechanics, and students at the graduate level
and above.
