Polar-Sitter Mission for Continuous Observation of the Poles.
The Polar Sitter mission provides a continuous observation of one of the Earth poles throughout the year. In order to perform this mission, equilibrium points of the circular restricted 3-body problem with radiation pressure have been chosen as candidate positions for the satellite. The tilt of the...
