Analyzes an elastic collision model with a cart and a wall, exploring conservation laws and momentum, and discusses the collision of two balls and central motion concepts.
Explores Kepler's laws, orbital mechanics, energy of motion, flight path angles, orbital maneuvers, Hohmann transfers, geostationary orbits, and Lagrange points.
Covers the fundamentals of aerospace engineering, including space mission design concepts and personal experiences from the instructor's time in space.
