Aura Spring 2019 IAM Series Results
Each Inclination Adjust Maneuver (IAM) series requires a post-series analysis along with a long term prediction. This presentation analyzes Aura's 2019 IAM series, some of the issues encountered, along with the long-term impact of this series performance. This series in particular is interesting since it was the first to use reaction wheels for slews as opposed to thrusters. The long-term prediction covers Aura's ground track and inclination progression until the next IAM series in 2020.
