Computer program for interplanetary conic patching

Abstract

Computer program enables study of one-way transfers, single and double planet flybys, single and double planet stopovers, or mixed flyby and stopover trajectories. In each operation it first computes the heliocentric conic which connects the centers of the launch and target planets and requires a given trip time.
