What to do?
2023-02-02 Spacecraft Dynamics Which we have shown describes elliptic, parabolic or hyperbolic motion.
Question: What is f (t)?
Response: There is no closed-form expression for f (t)!
What to do?
Recall the Conic Equation Start with Kepler’s Second Law: Equal Areas in
Equal Time.

But how does A(t) relate to f (t)?
While semi-latus rectum and eccentricity define the conic section in polar
form, a and b define the conic section in rectilinear coordinates.

Mean Anomaly can be thought of as the fraction of the period of the orbit
which has elapsed, but put into radians.
However, it simplifies the expression for E
OS = a cos E
= ae + r cos f
a(1−e2 )
But r = 1+e cos f , so
e + cos f
cos E = .
1 + e cos f
Using the half-angle formula, we can
get the expression

Given f , we can find E.

Converting Between E and f
a(1 − e2 )
r(t) =
1 + e cos f (t)
which yields
a(1 − e2 ) − r(t)
cos f (t) = = −.9397
er(t)
Solving for f yields two solutions f = 160◦ , 200◦ .
Now we want to find E(t).
r
E 1−e f
tan = tan = ±3.27

This yields
E = ±146.0337◦ ,
M. Peet Lecture 4: Spacecraft Dynamics 12 / 23
Example: Going from E to M is easy
M (t)
t= = 3594s, 6357s
n
Note: In this way, it is easy to find the time between any 2 points in the orbit.
e.g. from f = 160◦ to f = 200◦ takes time ∆t = 6357 − 3594 = 2763s.

Solving the Kepler Equation
Given M , find E
M = E − e sin E
• A Transcendental Equation
• No Closed-Form Solution
• However, for any M , there is a unique E.
M = E − e sin E
A scaled Newton iteration always converges for convex functions, (f ′′ (x) > 0)
By scaled, we mean we use the linear approximation, but only update the
guess as
f (xk )
xk+1 = xk − α ′
f (xk )
where 0 < α < 1 is some sufficiently small step size.
For Kepler’s equation, we can use α = 1.
Applied to Kepler’s Equation
• Update
M − Ek + e sin Ek
Ek+1 = Ek −
e cos Ek − 1
• If ∥M − Ek + e sin Ek ∥ < .001 or whatever, quit.
• Otherwise repeat.

Now ∥f (E3 )∥ < .001, so quit. E = E3 = 2.570. Now Solve for true anomaly

and
M (t0 ) = E(t0 ) − e sin E(t0 )
Then we calculate the Mean anomaly at the final time as
Important! If M (tf ) > 2π, then subtract off the largest value of 2π before solving Kepler’s
Equation!!!
Also Important! Don’t forget to use radians and NOT degrees when solving Kepler’s Equation!!!
Final Note! If you are given r(t0 ) and not f (t0 ), you can calculate f (t0 ) using the polar equation.
p
r(t0 ) =
1 + e cos f (t0 )
However, this has TWO solutions, so you have to be able to resolve the quadrant ambiguity somehow.
