There are a number of specialty topics in orbital selection, such as sun synchronous, Molniya, highly inclined, and orbits around the Lagrange points. We talk about the pros and cons of each of these.


In this series of classes I will discuss the basics of satellite design. The goal is to understand all of the basic systems in satellites, to the point of having a starting point to build a satellite, such as a Cubesat. Feel free to talk with others working their way through on my discord, https://discord.gg/qnn4bmM , in the #satellite room.
