The surface of Phobos is an intriguing subject of research for many scientists. This is associated, among other things, with the fact that it is perceived as a potential launch site for future human Mars exploration. Additionally, measurements conducted ...

Near-Earth Asteroids represent potential threats to human life because their trajectories may bring them in the proximity of the Earth. Monitoring these objects could help predict future impact events, but such efforts are hindered by the large numbers o...

In this paper, a practical approach to trajectory design for asteroid exploration missions with CubeSats is presented. When applied trajectories are sought, operative concerns and uncertainties affecting the spacecraft dynamics must be considered during ...

An asteroid impact can potentially destroy life on this planet. Therefore, asteroids should be prevented from impacting the Earth to impede severe disasters. Nuclear explosions are currently the only option to prevent an incoming asteroid impact when the...

Autonomous navigation and orbit determination are key problems of asteroid exploration missions. Inter-satellite range link is a type of measurement widely used in the orbit determination of Earth satellites, but not so widely used in missions around sma...

In this work, we propose a novel controller based on a simple adaptive controller methodology and model predictive control (MPC) to generate and track trajectories of a spacecraft in the vicinity of asteroids. The control formulation is based on using ad...

We investigate the topological types and bifurcations of periodic orbits in the gravitational field of irregular bodies by the well-known two parameter analysis method. Results show that the topological types of periodic orbits are determined by the loca...

Some asteroids flying close to Earth may pose a threat of impact. Among them, the structural and dynamical characteristics of rubble-pile asteroids can be changed because of the tidal force of the Earth in this process. This can provide key information f...

This paper investigates the issue of balance control for reaction-wheeled inverted pendulum-type Cubli Rovers on asteroids, and an adaptive control scheme is proposed via the prescribed performance control technique. The main feature lies in the fact tha...
