Scheduling the coverage of a planet by scientific instruments on board spacecrafts under observational constraints is central in a significant number of current and future missions for the exploration of the solar system. In this paper, we describe the components and algorithms of a software used to study early-phase mission design or to schedule daily operations of currently in-flight spacecraft. The scheduling problem at hand is usually a large combinatorial problem. A discretization process is described and several ordering algorithms are designed and compared. Experiments show that high-quality schedules can be produced by approaches combining reasoning about rolling, coverage and priorities.
