Welcome to Tudat Space!#
The TU Delft Astrodynamics Toolbox (Tudat) is a powerful set of libraries that support astrodynamics and space research. Such framework can be used for a wide variety of purposes, ranging from the study of reentry dynamic to interplanetary missions. The core functionality of Tudat is implemented in C++ and exposed to Python using an interface called Tudat(Py). Tudat and Tudat(Py) are entirely open-source and disseminated using conda packages.
