Description

This paper describes the development and use of a long duration orbital simulator (LDOS). The LDOS capabilities, options, accuracy, and central processing unit (CPU) usage are discussed. The applications described using the LDOS are associated with (a) Manned Space Flight Network (MSFN) support of long duration missions, (b) environmental effects on high earth orbits and (c) long term orbit decay. The appendix depicts the salient portions of the math model.
