Dear GMAT Development Team, I am writing on behalf of Conex Research to seek your expert assistance with an issue we are currently facing with the General Mission Analysis Tool (GMAT).Our team is working on a project that involves direct transfer trajectories to Saturn and utilizing Venus's gravity assist. The core of our analysis depends on accurately simulating these trajectories using the latest ephemeris data. However, we have encountered a significant hurdle.After loading the de441.bsp ephemeris data file for the period post-2050 into GMAT, we consistently receive an error message. This issue has raised concerns about whether we are utilizing the ephemeris data correctly within GMAT.
We would greatly appreciate any guidance or support you can provide to help us resolve this issue. Insights into the correct procedure for loading and using ephemeris data, especially for extended time frames such as post-2050, would be invaluable for our project's progress. We are eager to ensure that our usage of GMAT aligns with best practices and that our simulations are as accurate and reliable as possible. Your expertise in this matter would not only assist us in overcoming our current challenge but also contribute significantly to the success of our project.Thank you for your time and consideration. We look forward to your valuable input and are available for any further discussions or clarifications needed. Best Regards, Dhrumil PatadiaConex Research
