International manned lunar base: Beginning the 21st century in space [PDF]

Science and Global Security, 1991
An evaluation is made of requirements for, and advantages in, the creation of a manned lunar base whose functions emphasize astronomical investigations. These astronomical studies would be able to capitalize on the lunar environment's ultrahigh vacuum, highly stable surface, dark and cold sky, low-G, absence of wind, isolation from terrestrial 'noise',

A Research in Mass Estimation of Manned Lunar Landing Spacecraft Based on Discrete Event Simulation

DEStech Transactions on Computer Science and Engineering, 2016
The mass estimation of the spacecraft, as a top-level design of the manned lunar landing mission, is the main factor for designing the rocket carrying capacity and determining the composition and function of spacecraft system. This paper firstly built an analysis model of mass estimation for spacecraft which took the crew size, mission duration, orbit ...

Hybrid uncertainty-based design optimization and its application to hybrid rocket motors for manned lunar landing

Chinese Journal of Aeronautics, 2017
Abstract Design reliability and robustness are getting increasingly important for the general design of aerospace systems with many inherently uncertain design parameters. This paper presents a hybrid uncertainty-based design optimization (UDO) method developed from probability theory and interval theory. Most of the uncertain design parameters which
