Space Mission Design and Operations
This lecture covers topics related to space mission design and operations, including Newton's laws of motion, gravitational fields, conservation laws, Earth's magnetic field, solar activity, cosmic radiation effects, and solar radiation spectrum. It also discusses the Earth's atmosphere, geomagnetic field, radiation belts, and the impact of solar phenomena on spacecraft. The instructor presents key concepts such as microgravity, solar prominences, coronal mass ejections, and the South Atlantic Anomaly, emphasizing the effects of cosmic particles on electronic systems and human health.
