THEORY OF ORBIT DETERMINATION

Determining orbits of natural and artificial celestial bodies is an essential step in the
exploration and understanding of the Solar System. However, recent progress in the quality
and quantity of data from astronomical observations and spacecraft-tracking has generated
orbit determination problems which cannot be handled by classical algorithms. This book
presents new algorithms capable of handling the millions of bodies which could be observed
by next-generation surveys, and which can fully exploit tracking data with state-of-the-art
levels of accuracy.
After a general mathematical background and summary of classical algorithms, the new
algorithms are introduced using the latest mathematical tools and results, to which the
authors have personally contributed. Case studies based on actual astronomical surveys and
space missions are provided, with applications of these new methods. Intended for grad-
uate students and researchers in applied mathematics, physics, astronomy, and aerospace
engineering, this book is also of interest to non-professional astronomers.

an d r e a m i l a n i is Full Professor of Mathematical Physics in the Department of Mathe-


matics, University of Pisa. His areas of research include the N-body problem, the stability of
the Solar System, asteroid dynamics and families, satellite geodesy, planetary exploration,
orbit determination, and asteroid impact risk.
giovanni f. gronchi is a Researcher of Mathematical Physics in the Department
of Mathematics, University of Pisa. His research is on Solar System body dynamics,
perturbation theory, orbit determination, singularities, and periodic orbits of the N-body
problem.

COVER ILLUSTRATION: The orbits of eight potentially hazardous asteroids (PHA); they
have a minimum intersection distance with the orbit of the Earth of less than 0.05 astronom-
ical units. Together with many more smaller objects, they form a swarm surrounding the
orbit of our planet (represented, not to scale, in green, orbit in yellow), are observable with
either telescopes or radar, and provide a good example of an orbit determination problem.
The objects in this figure are the brightest PHA, with diameters larger than 2 km; thus
an impact with the Earth would result in a global catastrophe. There has been interesting
recent progress in the theory of orbit determination, to which the authors of this book have
contributed. New algorithms have been developed to exclude the possibility that any of
these objects have the possibility of impacting the Earth, at least in the next 100 years.
The same result also applies to somewhat smaller PHA, but the impact of either a much
smaller known asteroid or an asteroid still to be discovered is still possible; thus the orbit
determination work must go on. The orbit diagram is superimposed on an actual image
of the sky (courtesy of G. Rhemann, Astrostudio, Vienna) which includes a Solar System
body: a comet discovered in 2008 by A. Boattini, showing its coma.

PREFACE

This book is a tool for our own teaching and an opportunity to rethink and
reorganize the results of our own research. However, I think such a book can
be useful to others, for two main reasons. First, spaceflight is no longer the
privilege of the few superpowers, but is becoming available to many nations
and agencies. Orbit determination is an essential knowhow, both in the
planning phase of mission analysis and in the operations of space missions.
Thus its mathematical tools need to become widely available.
Second, the knowledge and skill used in orbit determination, for both
natural and artificial celestial bodies, was available only among a restricted
group of specialists. The prevailing attitude was a proprietary one: the
knowledge and the software were protected by formal copyright and/or by
secrecy, although protecting in this way the pure mathematical theory is,
in the long run, impossible. This attitude might have been justified under
the conditions of the world of 30–40 years ago, in the critical phases of the
competition to achieve space firsts. Now it is time to teach and disseminate
this knowledge, allowing the formation of a wider group of specialists.
I know that many of the rules of thumb and practical advice contained
in this book will be rated as well known, even obvious, by the few experts,
but this is not the point. Even well-known results may need to be presented
in a rational, rigorous, and didactically effective new way, together with the
outcome of recent innovative research. On the other hand, this book does
not have the intent of providing a comprehensive review of all that has been
done in this field, because the size would become impractical. This book
is about making widely available the outcome of the research done by my
group over many years, and includes methods for which there are rigorous
mathematical arguments and which have been fully tested by us first hand,
and found to be effective. In the last  15 years there has been enormous
progress in this field, and several other research groups have given important
contributions: we are in no way claiming that their methods would not work,
we are just giving a list of methods which we know to work.

ix
x PREFACE

The above arguments may not be enough for the approval of all the people
in this field, but I do think that to state the mathematical foundations and
rules of orbit determination, thus removing a vague flavor of craftmanship,
can also benefit the already existing specialists. The orbit determination
expert, in the very competitive environment in which space missions and
large astronomical projects are selected today, is too often under pressure to
endorse claims of wonderful results to be achieved with very limited means.
By ignoring the rules of good practice it is possible to claim illusory precision
and/or completeness for the solution, including the orbits and other param-
eters which can be operationally, technologically, and scientifically relevant.
Maybe being able to cite a textbook stating clearly what is appropriate and
what is illusory can help in relieving this improper pressure.
This book is based on the experience accumulated in  30 years of research
with my coworkers of the former Space Mechanics Group (now Celestial
Mechanics Group) at the Department of Mathematics, University of Pisa.
Thus it contains, besides the formal mathematical theory and the teaching
examples, a number of “case studies” based upon actual research projects.
They are about space missions and about natural objects: one of the goals is
to stress the common mathematics used in satellite geodesy and in dynamical
astronomy, and at the same time to present clearly the main differences.
The preparation of this book has been made possible by the collaboration
of my younger colleague, Dr. Giovanni F. Gronchi. Besides classical material
and original results by myself and Gronchi, this book contains the output
of research done by the members of our group and by either regular or
occasional external coworkers. Thus I would like to include a long, but
still possibly incomplete, list of coworkers whose contributions have to be
acknowledged: L. Anselmo, O. Arratia, S. Baccili, A. Boattini, C. Bonanno,
M. Carpino, G. Catastini, L. Cattaneo, S.R. Chesley, S. Cicalò, L. Denneau,
L. Dimare, P. Farinella, D. Farnocchia, Z. Knežević, L. Iess, R. Jedicke, A.
La Spina, M. de’ Michieli Vitturi, A.M. Nobili, A. Rossi, M.E. Sansaturio,
G. Tommei, G.B. Valsecchi, D. Villani, D. Vokrouhlický.
This book is dedicated to two good friends and valuable coworkers: Paolo
Farinella and Steve Chesley. They could have been among the authors of
this book, but they both left in the year 2000, when the book project was
immature. Steve went back to his home country, from where he can still
advise me on these subjects. Paolo went where he can give me neither his
essential scientific insight nor the warmth of his friendship. Thus I would
like to thank both of them for what I learned with them and from them.
