Project 5

Hohmann Transfer Orbit
Square Root Equations

Using Square Root equations to determine the the Delta V requirements to transfer a spacecraft from one orbital altitude to another.

Project 6
Crew Module Design
Linear Equations

Using Linear Equations to determine the mass, number of astronauts, and the flight duration of a crew module design from the Boeing Company.

Project 7
The Rocket Equation
Exponential Equations

Transforming the logarithmic equation to an exponential equation solving for payload mass of an orbital rocket design from the Boeing Company.

Project 8
Space Mission Design
Business and Finance

Using the above three projects, a realistic space mission design to a Near Earth Object can be shown to pay for itself by selling rocks at Sotheby's.
