Lecture
Aerodynamic Braking Maneuvers
Description
This lecture discusses aerodynamic braking maneuvers in space missions, focusing on generating velocity changes by using the atmosphere of planets or satellites like Titan. It covers aerocapture, aerobraking, and aeroentry methods, explaining how spacecraft can utilize atmospheric drag to adjust their orbits and save propellant during interplanetary journeys.
