Detailed Documentation

In this article, we explore the mathematical model of the Apollo satellite. This model is defined through a set of functions suitable for solving ordinary differential equations. The development process was not straightforward, as researchers underwent extensive testing and refinements before achieving the final optimized version. The model's implementation typically involves numerical integration methods (such as Runge-Kutta algorithms) to simulate satellite trajectory, velocity, and positional changes over time. Its high practical value lies in predicting the Apollo satellite's motion and behavior, which is crucial for space exploration and research. The core functions calculate gravitational interactions, orbital perturbations, and kinematic parameters using state-space representations.
