Ballistics, navigation and flight control of the spacecraft, going to the L2 point of Sun-Earth system. ... and calculation algorithms have been developed: - an algorithm, building nominal trajectories for one impulse flights to the L2 point of Sun- Earth system, including a Moon swingby maneuver or not. - an algorithm, calculating corrections of spacecraft trajectory needed for the flight from Earth to halo orbit and for stationkeeping of the spacecraft moving in halo ...

... New technique measures mass of exoplanets . ... Now, scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed a new technique for determining the mass of exoplanets using only their transmission spectra dips in light as a planet passes in front of its star. ... To determine the mass of an exoplanet using transmission spectroscopy, de Wit relied on the effect that a planet s mass has on its atmosphere, as transmission spectra give information on a planet s atmospheric properties. ...
