Overview

This project presents a comprehensive computational study on Solar System dynamics, focusing on the statistical analysis of orbital mechanics and trajectory optimization for interplanetary travel. By leveraging high-precision data from NASA/JPL Horizons and other astronomical databases, we analyze the distribution and resonance patterns of asteroids and major bodies. The project further implements advanced algorithms to calculate optimal transfer routes, minimizing energy consumption (delta-v) and travel time, effectively solving complex "puzzles" of celestial navigation.

Repository Structure

• src/: Contains the core Python scripts and analysis modules for data processing, resonance calculations, and trajectory optimization algorithms.
• notebooks/: Interactive Jupyter Notebooks providing a step-by-step reproduction of the study, from raw data acquisition to final visualizations.
• data/: Stores database files (.db, .json, .txt) and raw datasets used in the analysis.

  Note: Large database files (e.g., solar_system_analysis_with_distances.db) are excluded from this repository via .gitignore due to size constraints.

• docs/: Supplementary documentation, theoretical background references, and project reports.
