Description

Associated to sample return missions to Phobos (Phobos-Grunt) or a mission targeting NEOs (MarcoPolo-R, AIDA), one generally aims at following trajectories that optimize Delta-V consumption, hovering stations, solar panel illuminations, ... We perform analysis of trajectories around such low gravity object considering in both cases the perturbed gravitational or non gravitational environment. Missions constraints consists in phases of hovering, different altitudes approaches and duration, and touch down. Starting from given reference missions, we will present orbitability studies around either quasi-satellite orbits (QSO) or equilibrium points (EP).
