The preliminary design of interplanetary direct transfer trajectories is generally done using the patched conic technique. This design consists of hyperbolic excess velocity vectors at both the ends, say Earth and Mars. For an orbiter mission, a particular inclination and periapsis altitude of the approach hyperbola must be achieved. For a given departure date and a fixed flight duration,...

We develop a low energy trajectory from the Earth to the Moon by extensively using the framework of tube dynamics. We assume that a spacecraft is under the influence of gravity of the Sun, the Earth as well as the Moon and also that the spacecraft and the planets move in the same plane. In this situation, we model the Sun-Earth-Moon-Spacecraft (S/C) 4 body system as a coupled PRC3B system with...

In Solar System dynamics, a close encounter with a major body is the only natural phenomenon capable of modifying the orbital elements of a body on a very short timescale. If not properly taken into account during orbit propagation close encounters may heavily degrade the quality of a solution, or even completely compromise it. When numerically integrating the equations of motion of the body...

The Asteroid Impact Mission (AIM) is a mission by ESA, planned to be the first to rendezvous with a binary asteroid. AIM mission objectives includes both scientific investigations and technological demonstrations. The mission is part of the Asteroid Impact & Deflection Assessment (AIDA), a joint cooperation between ESA and NASA, devoted to assess the effectiveness in deflecting the...

The Institute for Space Technology and Space Applications (ISTA) of Bundeswehr University Munich is investigating mission concepts for the in-situ astrobiological exploration of the icy moons of the outer solar system. A concept studied in the context of the DLR funded Enceladus Explorer project (EnEx) aimed to place a lander near one of the plume sources on the bottom of a “tiger stripe”...
