Ground Station Trajectory Correction

Ground Station Trajectory Correction is a space maneuver process that adjusts a planned flight path after navigation updates or mission changes for antenna, scheduling, and downlink operations. It uses delta-v estimates, burn timing, and post-maneuver validation so teams can reduce path error before it grows while keeping evidence, reliability, and public-safe operational boundaries clear.

“The mission team used Ground Station Trajectory Correction when the antenna handoff began, so the team could reduce path error before it grows before the next mission decision point.”
