The Coulomb software complex for modeling of spacecraft charging in magnetosphere plasma in high and low Earth orbits is described. Physical mechanisms of spacecraft charging and methods of mathematical modeling of this phenomenon in various areas of space are considered. Examples of the calculation results of electrical potential distribution on the spacecraft surface and in the vicinity of the spacecraft in geosynchronous and the low Earth orbits are presented.
