QLUSTER
QLUSTER is a relative orbit design tool for formation flying satellite missions and space rendezvous scenarios, that I wrote in Python 3 for my own research and visualisation. It is currently unfinished (95%) but the core algorithm and app works. Here's an example snippet of the GUI where four deputy satellites are orbiting a single chief in LEO.
I am open-sourcing it, as I would love to collaborate with you to improve on QLUSTER if you have any cool features to add-on in relation to the design, visualisation, and propagation of the relative astrodynamics!
To-Do List: Documentation, deputy orbit determination, logging of ephemeris etc.
Stretch-Goals: Relative orbit propagation for perturbed orbits, and computation of formation maintenance.
Installation and First Steps
First, clone this repository by running in your terminal (or Git Bash):
git clone https://github.com/sammmlow/QLUSTER.git
Then, just run the main qluster.py file in the main directory, and the GUI should pop up. Have fun!
