Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

In recent years, the growing congestion of orbital space has posed a significant challenge to the safe operation of spacecraft. With the increasing complexity of space missions, it is essential to develop intelligent perception, autonomous decision-making, and advanced control strategies that enable spacecraft to navigate with precision and adapt to unpredictable environments without constant human intervention. The integration of machine learning, reinforcement learning, and evolutionary computation into spacecraft systems has thus become a focal point of research.

The aim of this Special Issue is to provide a platform for scientists, engineers, and practitioners throughout the world to present recent research on intelligent perception, autonomous decision-making, orbital game theory, advanced control, mission planning, and the design of spacecraft systems. We particularly welcome the submission of papers that present newly emerging fields and applications.

Finally, I would like to thank Dr. Min Li for his dedication to and assistance with this Special Issue.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Aerospace is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
