Abstract
In these years, small satellites have grown in performance greatly and it is important to develop the good launcher for small satellites. One of the promising launch systems for small satellites is air launch. In Japan there is no successful small launch vehicle as it is now and some researchers have proposed air launch rockets using existing solid motors. To achieve air launch, some new technologies are necessary. As candidate of the one of such new technologies, the quick optimization of the rocket trajectory with MCMC (Markov chain Monte Carlo) method is introduced in this paper.
