Software

This page will portray space engineering software and aerospace software that is used for space mission design and space planning and space budget analysis and spacecraft trajectory design. At aerospacelectures.com we will try to find all the useful space technology software and space mission software to help you plan your mission or project. This is especially useful for students to use spacecraft mission software to learn about space missions.

NASA GMAT Software (General Space Mission Analysis Tool) is an open-source tool for space mission design and navigation. GMAT is developed by a team of NASA, private industry, and public and private contributors.
