We have submitted the following accepted papers to the IEEE Aerospace Conference in Big Sky, Montana (Mar 1-8, 2025). https://www.aeroconf.org/.
The papers reflect the most recent progress of the Stanford Space Rendezvous Laboratory in spaceflight software development, constrained optimal orbit control, flight results from angles-only navigation with application to distributed space systems. The research on transformer-based trajectory optimization and foundation models for space applications results from a tight collaboration with Prof. Marco Pavone’s lab within the Center for AEroSpace Autonomy Research (CAESAR).
