Rendezvous and proximity operations (RPO) mission planning can be a very complex process. AGI has developed a set of pre-built RPO sequences that allow an RPO mission planner to quickly and easily plan an RPO mission with just minimal training. In the first half of this class, you will explore creating an RPO mission in GEO using the pre-built templates. In the second half of the class, you will explore how to define a keep out sphere for your target satellite. Then you will explore how to maintain a passively safe actor satellite. The Passive Safety tool, brand new to STK 12.7, looks through the sequences and assesses what happens if a maneuver is missed. Using the passive safety tool, you can define that keep out regime, then modify the satellite to maintain passive safety for the entire mission.

Upon completion of this class, you will understand:

• How to launch the Astrogator RPO setup
• The newly generated RPO component templates
• How to build an RPO mission
• How to define a keep out sphere
• How to maintain a passively safe set of sequences

Follow along on your computer as an instructor walks you through this focused STK lesson. AGI engineers will be available during the session to answer your questions, live.

This lesson requires STK 12.7 to complete because it includes new features introduced in STK 12.7. If you wish to follow along with the instructor and are unable to upgrade STK to 12.7 on your computer before this class, you can use STK Cloud, a web-based version of STK. There is nothing to download in advanced with STK Cloud. It does not require a license or software install. If you would like to use STK Cloud, please select that option when registering and use the link provided in your confirmation email the day of the class to access STK Cloud. To use STK Cloud, you will need the following:

• An agi.com account
• HTML5-capable browser (IE is not recommended)
• Fast, stable Internet connection that allows web-socket connections - test your connection here
