A method is proposed for calculating the atmospheric entry maneuvers of a spacecraft. Errors are evaluated for calculations of spacecraft with zero and constant values of lift-drag ratio, as well as for problems of optimal control. Particular attention is given to the determination of the trajectory parameters of the ballistic descent of spacecraft from earth-satellite orbit.
