Do you want to go to Mars but don't know when to leave or how much to bring?
Do you want to study Earth protection by planning a mission to a near-Earth
asteroid? Do you want to place a telescope in an orbit that is always looking
outwards from the Earth and Sun? The General Mission Analysis Tool (GMAT) is
an open-source space mission design tool to help you answer these and many
other space flight challenges. GMAT is developed by a team of NASA, private
industry, and public and private contributors. It is used for real-world
engineering studies, as a tool for education and public engagement, and to fly
operational spacecraft. You can download GMAT here: Windows
