Abstract

The goal of this bachelor thesis is to compute and visualize lunar module's optimal descent trajectory. An application for the visualization of the descent trajectory and lunar module's position from dataset was developed with the use of a 3D engine Godot. The measured coordinates were acquired through digitization of graphs from the NASA published Apollo 11 flight plan. Subsequently the optimal trajectory was computed and compared with the measured historical data from Apollo 11 Lunar landing. Using the designed application it is possible to interactively visualize the differences between optimal descent trajectories.
