Abstract

An algorithm is developed for terminal guidance during the main deceleration section of the lunar landing trajectory of a spacecraft with an integrated propulsion system, which has a main engine with variable thrust and four auxiliary nonthrottleable engines. A method of guidance adaptation to the actual motion conditions by measuring the thrust acceleration with jumps in time is proposed.
