A process for the transport of a spacecraft or. A satellite with coupled drive devices of a low earth orbit around the earth or in a erdentweichrajektorie

摘要

The invention relates to putting a space vehicle into ever higher orbits or trajectories. It relates to a method of applying elementary thrust pulses to the space vehicle, substantially in the same orbital position and during practically the same orbital time. The thrust is limited to a range such that the acceleration is greater than 0.01 g at the start of the thrust and is less than 0.3 g at the end of the thrust. Application to placing geostationary satellites into orbit from a space shuttle. IMAGE
