Summary
Satellite Orbit Determination
is the process of accurately calculating the
Trajectory of a satellite
around a
Celestial Body
, typically Earth, using
Observational Data
and
Mathematical Models
. This is crucial for ensuring the satellite's
Proper function
, including communication, navigation, and
Earth Observation
, by predicting its future positions and adjusting its path as necessary.
