Mission planners at the European Space Agency want to launch their Ariane 5 launch vehicle from French Guyana (Lo=4 deg N).In to a low-Earth orbit with an inclination of 30 deg and a right ascension of the ascending node of 135 deg.

 LST at the launch site is 1430. 

a) How many launch opportunities will there be per day? 

b) Draw a 2-D polar view of this launch geometry.

c) Draw a 3-D side view of this launch geometry. 

d) Draw the auxiliary triangle for the ascending and descending node opportunities.

 e) What is the inclination auxiliary angle for the ascending and descending node opportunities? f) What is the launch-direction auxiliary angle for the ascending and descending node opportunities?

 g) What is the launch window location angle for both opportunities?

 h) What is the LWSTAN? i)

How long until the LWSTAN? 

j) What is the launch azimuth for the ascending node? 

k) What is the LWSTDN? 

l) How long until?
