Researchers have developed Orbit-Planner, a novel two-stage latent world model designed for satellite agents to navigate and avoid obstacles in orbit. This model learns action-conditioned spacecraft dynamics to predict future states in a latent space and uses a Physics Probe to translate these latent predictions back into physical states. Experiments show Orbit-Planner's effectiveness in long-horizon latent rollouts and its ability to achieve a 91.7% success rate in closed-loop obstacle-avoidance simulations within NVIDIA Isaac Sim.
