Planetary mission handbook. Appendix A: Graphical trajectory data

Abstract

Graphical data is presented for Type 1 ballistic transfers to Jupiter (1974 to 1986), Saturn (1976 to 1986) and Uranus (1985). There are four graphs for each launch opportunity, namely the hyperbolic excess speed at earth departure, the hyperbolic excess speed at planet arrival, the declination of the hyperbolic departure asymptote, and the declination of the hyperbolic approach asymptote.
