Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

The storing mechanism and implementing method of space probe orbit are discussed,then based on OpenGL,many different types of space probe orbit are researched and realized,including orbit in ECI coordinate,visibility orbit of earth based control station,orbit in earth fixed coordinate and substar orbit.Practical use of this visualization method shows that it can express many kinds of orbit information,and also helps user to gain a complete and intuitive view of the flying process of space probe.
