| Abstract: | An algorithm is developed to find Weak Stability Boundary transfer trajectories to Moon in high fidelity force model using forward propagation. The trajectory starts from an Earth Parking Orbit (circular or elliptical). The algorithm varies the control parameters at Earth Parking Orbit and on the way to Moon to arrive at a ballistic capture trajectory at Moon. Forward propagation helps to satisfy launch vehicle’s maximum payload constraints. Using this algorithm, a number of test cases are evaluated and detailed analysis of capture orbits is presented. |
