Equations of rocket and satellite dynamics are obtained at various levels of approximation and make possible analyses of powered rocket ascent, orbit injection, and subsequent orbital motion. Rocket and satellite trajectory are specified by these equations, which include the effects of earth's rotation and curvature. Various analysis techniques are given, so that the investigator can choose the simplest one suited to his needs. In the process, material not readily available is presented, and some problems of ambiguity and inaccuracy in standard references are resolved. (Author)
