An experimental parallel fence with a ranging capability was begun in South Texas in 1960 to demonstrate system performance and early orbit determination.

Flight dynamics: A team is responsible for all orbital calculations and orbit determinations.

This allowed a reasonably precise orbit determination, and as a result it was spotted again on February 27, 2001 and January 21, 2002.

Laser corner-cube reflectors are also carried to aid in precise orbit determination and geodetic research.

D. degree from the university with thesis work on solutions for the Kepler problem on orbit determination.

More recently, he published a book with G. Gronchi on orbit determination.

There are about 50-60 stations equally distributed over the earth and ensure a good coverage for orbit determination.

"I'm sure all measurements, orbit determinations, equations of motion, and velocity corrections have been factored into the ship's navigation system."

The process of orbit determination is conceptually the same in both cases.

Almost an hour later Richard announced the results of his preliminary orbit determination.
