Toward Accurate Physics‐Based Specifications of Neutral Density Using GNSS‐Enabled Small Satellites
Abstract Satellite‐atmosphere interactions cause large uncertainties in low‐Earth orbit determination and prediction. Thus, knowledge of and the ability to predict the space environment, most notably thermospheric mass density, are essential for operating satellites in this domain. Recent progress h...
