This comprehensive text documents the fundamental theoretical
developments in astrodynamics and space navigation that led to
Man's ventures into space. It includes the essential elements of
celestial mechanics, spacecraft trajectories, and space navigation,
as well as the history of the underlying mathematical developments.
The material presented in the text represents a 25-year evolution
in course material by Dr Battin. Former students who benefitted
from this material include three of the astronauts who walked on
the moon. The text format offers flexibility for the user. Chapters
are largely independent of each other and may be read or taught in
any order, offering the opportunity to organize an undergraduate or
graduate course that meets the needs of students having various
levels of background and preparation. Further, the book covers more
subject matter than is covered in a single course of instruction,
thereby motivating students to stray from the beaten path of the
classroom.
