Basilisk and Docker for Reproducible GN&C Simulation: A Workflow Reference

A new paper presents a Docker-based workflow for running Basilisk GN&C simulations in a portable, reproducible container.

The container packages Basilisk’s build environment, dependencies, and simulation tools to standardize setups across machines.

It is demonstrated with progressively more complex cases, including orbital dynamics, BSKSim-based attitude control, and Monte Carlo runs.

The approach aims to reduce configuration problems and improve reproducibility for spacecraft simulation teams.
