Lander2D:

Path: Interplanetary/Landers

% 2D landing simulation using bilinear tangent thrust programming.
 Demonstrates the use of the bilinear tangent law on several moons.
 This demo does not account for the moon's curvature. It also assumes
 that the gravity is constant.

 Things to explore:

  1. Try the 3 moons: Earth's moon, Enceladus, or Europa
  2. Add another moon
  3. Try different thrust accelerations, a
