Three-body moon-earth satellite orbit and trajectory calculations for injection and periselenum
Effect of precession of near-earth orbits on timing of inplane launching for nodal encounter with moon
The long-term stable trajectories around Europa, one of the Galilean moons of Jupiter, are analyzed for their potential applications in spacecraft trajectory design, such as end of mission desposal options, backup orbits, or intermediary targets for transfer trajectories.

Various methods used in the organic analysis of lunar samples are reviewed. The scope, advantages, and limitations of these methods are discussed, with particular emphasis on possible sources of contamination and experimental artifacts inherent in their use. A broad survey of the organogenic elements and compounds found in lunar samples covers the search for biogenic structures and viable organisms; the abundance and isotopic composition of various elements and compounds; the search for porphyrins, amino acids, or amino acid precursors; and the presence of heterocylics, aromatic hydrocarbons, and other organic compounds. The sources of the organogenic elements and compounds detected in lunar samples are discussed. The significance of the lunar organic analysis for exobiology is discussed in terms of its relevance to and implications for the studies of chemical evolution and terrestrial organic geochemistry.

Some elementary steps for the formation and destruction of nitric oxide in the H-N-O system, high-temperature oxidation of hydrogen by nitrous oxide in shock waves, and high-temperature fast-flow reactor studies of metal-atom oxidation kinetics are among the topics covered in papers concerned with elementary reactions in combustion. Other areas covered include oscillatory, turbulent, and supersonic combustion; flames in furnaces and combustors; and pollutant formation and destruction in flames.
