GENERAL CONCEPTS ABOUT SOLID BODY ASTRODYNAMICS

Nonconventional Technologies Review, 2020
The paper presents the theoretical foundation of the dynamics of the solid body in gravitational movement in the outer space. It is known that the movement of solid bodies in space is subjects both the laws of Newton's classical mechanics and those of ...
