AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on finding tutorials for understanding orbital elements perturbations of artificial Earth satellites. A user seeks recommendations for resources that cover propagation algorithms considering main perturbations like Earth's potential, solar pressure, and third-body influences. The book "Modern Astrodynamics" by Bond and Allman is suggested as a useful reference for ambient gravitational fields and certain perturbations. However, it is noted that modeling solar wind effects may be overly complex for practical purposes. Overall, the thread emphasizes the need for accessible educational materials on satellite orbit perturbations.

Hello! First I am new at this forum and would like to say hello to everybody :)
Second- I am looking for a good tutorial on artificial Earth satellites orbit perturbations. Can somebody give me an advice where I can find it? Do you know any propagation algorithms for artificial satellites that involves main perturbations (Earth's potential, solar pressure, 3rd body)?

Bond and Allman, Modern Astrodynamics should help with ambient gravitational field of the Earth plus perturbations from Moon, a second satellite (not sure what you have in mind), but not, I think, solar wind buffeting. But you probably wouldn't try to model the latter anyway--- its too complicated.
 
TL;DR Summary: In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation. In case of failure to detect alien signals, it will further expand the radius of the so-called silence (or rather, radio silence) of the Universe. Is there any sense in this or is blissful ignorance better? In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation.

Thread 'Could gamma-ray bursts have an intragalactic origin?'
This is indirectly evidenced by a map of the distribution of gamma-ray bursts in the night sky, made in the form of an elongated globe. And also the weakening of gamma radiation by the disk and the center of the Milky Way, which leads to anisotropy in the possibilities of observing gamma-ray bursts. My line of reasoning is as follows: 1. Gamma radiation should be absorbed to some extent by dust and other components of the interstellar medium. As a result, with an extragalactic origin, fewer...

Your posts, clips and photos may by all means include scientific information; that does not make it less beautiful to me (n.b. the posts must of course comply with the PF guidelines, i.e. regarding science, only mainstream science is allowed, fringe/pseudoscience is not allowed). n.b.
