This is an expert-verified solutions manual for the 1st edition of Interplanetary Astrodynamics by David Spencer and Davide Conte, covering selective chapters (2 through 6). This academic resource provides rigorous, step-by-step mathematical derivations and numerical solutions for complex orbital mechanics problems. Key topics include the unperturbed two-body equations of motion, state-space form derivations in spherical and Cartesian coordinates, and interplanetary trajectory analysis. The manual utilizes precise gravitational parameters (e.g., Earth’s $mu=398,600 km^3/s^2$) to guide students and professionals through advanced calculations in space mission design and celestial mechanics. It is an essential tool for mastering the physics and mathematics required for interplanetary travel and satellite navigation.
