Teach orbits on the real engine

Students learn on the same engine every Arksa plan runs, checked against the worked examples in Vallado and Curtis. It opens in the web studio, universities partner with us for teaching and research, and a mission reaches the whole class as a link.

01 Academic partnerships

Partner for the whole course

Universities and research institutes partner with Arksa. With team accounts, the instructor adds the enrolled students, so there is nothing for a student to buy and no individual sign-up. Early access today: single-user studio by invitation. Team cloud, accounts and billing open with general availability.

Academic partnership

Partner for teaching and research

  • Course access for enrolled students, added by the instructor with team accounts.
  • Every analysis module, for non-commercial teaching and research.
  • The web studio, on any lab machine.
  • Docs and email support, plus joint publications and case studies.

Founding University pilot: 12 weeks, €1,500 (first 5 partners), with a free 2-week trial first. Pilot programme

02 In the classroom

From lecture to lab in one period

A typical session, using what a course partnership includes.

  1. 1Open

    Open the studio

    Open the web studio on any lab machine.

  2. 2Start

    Pick a template

    Reference missions that cover a first astrodynamics course.

  3. 3Analyse

    Change one thing

    Move the altitude, the inclination or a station mask and watch access, coverage, power and link budget respond.

  4. 4Hand in

    Share the result

    Students send a share link or a mission file; the mission opens exactly as they left it.

03 Teaching templates

Real missions to start from

Each template is a reference mission you can open, break and rebuild. Together they cover the orbits of a first astrodynamics course.

Check it against the textbook

Vallado's Example 2-1 solves Kepler's equation for M = 235.4° and e = 0.4, and gets E = 220.512074°. The engine's test suite asserts the same answer. Try it here with any values.

05 Classroom sharing

A whole mission in one link

Three ways to hand work out and take it back in, from a single link to a shared team workspace.

06 Pricing for teaching
