  3. Essential goals • Orbit measurements: interpretation, information processing, ballistic and navigational mission support, etc. • ground supported trajectory measurements (GSTM): • range • range rate • measurements by the strup down • Orbit determination: determination of all orbital parameters taken into account essential orbit perturbations • Maneuver optimization:planning the scheme of maneuvers, error estimation of maneuver realization • Landing on the surface of Ganimede: optimal scheme of descent session by using the thruster “Ganymede Lander: scientific goal and experiments”, 5-7 March 2013

  4. Ganymede Lander: Mission Stages • Launching of the spacecraft (SC) • Interplanetary flight Earth→Jupiter • gravitational maneuvers about Earth & Venus • Artificial satellite of Jupiter • gravitational maneuvers around Ganymede & Callisto • Artificial satellite of Ganymede (ASG) • preliminary elliptical orbit • circular polar orbit at the height of 100 km • prelanding orbit with low pericenter • session on Ganymede’s surface “Ganymede Lander: scientific goal and experiments”, 5-7 March 2013

  8. Essential perturbating factors • Gravitational field of Ganymede (2×2): 2nd zonal harmonics 2ndsectorial harmonics • Jupiter’s gravity attraction: circular equatorial orbit • Rotation of Ganymede is synchronized with its orbit around Jupiter , there are resonance effects “Ganymede Lander: scientific goal and experiments”, 5-7 March 2013

  9. Preliminary orbit Near equatorial and high eccentric orbit Take into account the orbit evolution (perturbations) Preliminary orbit with high eccentricity is very unstable: for e=0.5 it will destroy in 2 hours For eccentricity e<0.3 equatorial elliptical orbits are stable Polar elliptical orbits are unstable for e>0.01 “Ganymede Lander: scientific goal and experiments”, 5-7 March 2013
