This book describes the basic concepts of spacecraft operations for
both manned and unmanned missions. The first part of the book
provides a brief overview of the space segment. The next four parts
deal with the classic areas of space flight operations: mission
operations, communications and infrastructure, the flight dynamics
system, and the mission planning system. This is followed by a part
describing the operational tasks of the various subsystems of a
classical satellite in Earth orbit. The last part describes the
special requirements of other mission types due to the presence of
astronauts, the approach of a satellite to another target
satellite, or leaving Earth orbit in interplanetary missions and
landing on other planets and moons. The 2nd edition is published
seven years after the first edition. It contains four new chapters
on flight procedures, the human factors, ground station operation,
and software and systems. In addition, several chapters have been
extensively expanded. The entire book has been brought up to date
and the language has been revised. This book is based on the
“Spacecraft Operations Course” held at the German Space
Operations Center. However, the target audience of this book is not
only the participants of the course, but also students of technical
and scientific courses, as well as technically interested people
who want to gain a deeper understanding of spacecraft operations.
This book includes a selection of 30 reviewed and enhanced
manuscripts published during the 14th SpaceOps Conference held in
May 2016 in Daejeon, South Korea. The selection was driven by their
quality and relevance to the space operations community. The papers
represent a cross-section of three main subject areas: * Mission
Management - management tasks for designing, preparing and
operating a particular mission. * Spacecraft Operations -
preparation and implementation of all activities to operate a space
vehicle (crewed and uncrewed) under all conditions. * Ground
Operations - preparation, qualification, and operations of a
mission dedicated ground segment and appropriate infrastructure
including antennas, control centers, and communication means and
interfaces. This book promotes the SpaceOps Committee's mission to
foster the technical interchange on all aspects of space mission
operations and ground data systems while promoting and maintaining
an international community of space operations experts.

The book describes the basic concepts of spaceflight operations,
for both, human and unmanned missions. The basic subsystems of a
space vehicle are explained in dedicated chapters, the relationship
of spacecraft design and the very unique space environment are laid
out. Flight dynamics are taught as well as ground segment
requirements. Mission operations are divided into preparation
including management aspects, execution and planning. Deep space
missions and space robotic operations are included as special
cases. The book is based on a course held at the German Space
Operation Center (GSOC).
This book includes a selection of 30 reviewed and enhanced
manuscripts published during the 15th SpaceOps Conference held in
May 2018 in Marseille, France. The selection was driven by their
quality and relevance to the space operations community. The papers
represent a cross-section of three main subject areas: Mission
Management - management tasks for designing, preparing and
operating a particular mission Spacecraft Operations - preparation
and implementation of all activities to operate a space vehicle
(crewed and uncrewed) under all conditions Ground Operations -
preparation, qualification, and operations of a mission dedicated
ground segment and appropriate infrastructure including antennas,
control centers, and communication means and interfaces This book

This book includes a selection of reviewed and enhanced
contributions presented at the SpaceOps 2021, the 16th
International Conference on Space Operations, held virtually in May
2021. The chapter selections were made based upon their relevance
to the current space operations community. The contributions
represent a cross-section of three main subject areas: Mission
Management – management tasks for designing, preparing and
operating a particular mission; Spacecraft Operations –
preparation and implementation of all activities to operate a space
vehicle (crewed and uncrewed) under all conditions; and Ground
Operations – preparation, qualification, and operations of a
mission dedicated ground segment and appropriate infrastructure
including antennas, control centers, and communication means and
interfaces. The book promotes the SpaceOps Committee’s mission to

Space Operations: Innovations, lnventions, and Discoveries is a
collection of materials presented at the 13th SpaceOps Conference,
held in 2014 in Pasadena, California and organized by Caltech's Jet
Prepulsion Laboratory. From numerous papers presented at the event,
those selected for this volume represent a cross section of four
main subject areas: Breakthrough Technologies for Space Operations;
Mission Design and Concepts; Ground System Advances for Efficient
and Secure Operations and Mission Operations. All of the selected
