Path: LunarMissions/LunarMission
% Lunar mission planning Compute transfer delta-Vs and simulate a lunar landing starting from low Earth orbit. The entire spacecraft lands, there is no portion left in lunar orbit. The steps are: # Set the elements and date so that transfer orbit and lunar orbit match. # Compute the insertion delta-v # Circularize the lunar orbit # Do a Hohmann descent to the powered landing altitude # Do a powered landing using BilinearTangent See also RARP2A, RPRA2AE, DVHoh, RVOrbGen, EarthMoon, TrajectoryPlot, RocketMass, Period, RV2El, VOrbit, CEcl2Eq, PlanetPosJPL, BilinearTangentLaw, Constant, CreateHTMLTable, DisplayLatexTable, NewFig, TimeLabl, XLabelS, Date2JD, RK4, Mag ------------------------------------------------------------------------- % -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Copyright (c) 2014 Princeton Satellite Systems All Rights Reserved. --------------------------------------------------------------------------
