Orbit, Rigid Body Dynamics and Magnetic field simulation for Low-Earth-Orbit Spacecraft

Satellite Simulation

This project started as an experimental, line-by-line Python port of the MATLAB Simulation by Carlos Montalvo in his ADCS Seminar for LEO Satellites, available on his YouTube Channel

But as time passed, I started making more and more changes to the code structure and now I'm attempting to turn this into a useful tool in the development of @zenitheesc CubeSats ADCS subsystems.

Roadmap

• Implement Models and Integration in C++ for better performance
• Visualize Attitude in a 3D environment
• Create a better overall data visualization, either a dedicated tool or using ZenView
