My research direction is navigation. It was revised after 2 months of submission, and accepted after revision. Later, the journal emailed me that it could be searched online. But it has not been found online. Is there any way to be certain of it? Or it could be the method I checked was wrong. I searched on the journal's official website and on the web of science. Does anyone know how to contact the journal for inquiries? Thanks a lot.

I personally think that Acta Astronautica is a very comprehensive journal with many articles on the overall design of satellites. Reading more can improve the accomplishment of engineers.

I feel this journal is very irresponsible, with no one reviewing the manuscripts and not actively pursuing reviewers. The emails sent to remind them are all template responses.

A journal with extremely slow processing, be cautious when submitting. It may also be related to the journal editors. After sending the manuscript to three reviewers in the early stage, they did not follow up. Even after recommending additional reviewers via email, they did not add them. After 5 months, they directly rejected it, citing reasons such as inability to find reviewers. It is frustrating and a huge waste of time.
