Articles are grouped under four headings: (1) dynamics and control of satellites; (2) satellite mission analysis; (3) Aeros-B and Symphonie satellite engineering problems; (4) optimization and control techniques applied to solar space heating and cooling of buildings. Topics covered include: communications and earth survey satellite systems, a system of two counter-orbiting satellites measuring GRT-predicted nodal drag, statistical mechanics studies of the spatial density function of orbiting space junk, attitude control of satellites, nutation dampers, low thrust inertial guidance and ascent inertial guidance, a shuttle-launched multi-comet intercept mission, preflight and in-flight analysis of the Atmosphere Explorer (AE-C) satellite, and launch-encounter strategy for the Mariner 1977 Jupiter-Saturn mission. Individual items are announced in this issue.
