Description
Acta Astronautica publishes original contributions in all fields of basic, engineering, life and social space sciences and of space technology related to: (1) the peaceful scientific exploration of space, (2) its exploitation for human welfare and progress and (3) the conception, design, development and operation of space-borne and Earth-based systems. In addition to regular issues of contributed papers, the journal publishes selected proceedings of the annual IAF Congress, transactions of the IAA and special issues on topics of current interest, such as microgravity, space station technology, geostationary orbits, and space economics. Other major subject areas regularly covered include satellite technology, space transportation and communications, space energy, power and propulsion, astrodynamics, extraterrestrial intelligence and Earth observations.
