Aerospace spacecraft-charging guidelines documentA short summary document on spacecraft charging was prepared for use by engineers in the various Aerospace Corporation program offices that support Air Force Space Division programs. The magnetospheric charging environment at near-geosynchronous altitudes is outlined and the mechanisms of charging and discharging are discussed. Statistical results from the P78-2 (SCATHA) satellite engineering experiments are given. The document is intended to be a layman's source for charging information and for design guidance and criteria.
