Space mission analysis and design
"This third edition of Space Mission Analysis and Design, known as SMAD to its many friends, carries on the tradition of the first two editions of providing a practical handbook for Space Mission Engineering - the process of defining mission parameters and refining requirements to meet the often fuzzy objectives of a space mission at minimum cost and risk. The book is a comprehensive presentation of theory and practice, drawing on the insight and practical knowledge of leading experts from all segments of the aerospace community."--Jacket
