% Generate a Lambert transfer between two planets. Uses the almanac for the planet positions, see Planets. Computes the transfers using LambertTOF. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Form: [dV, dVA, dVB, elT] = PlanetTransferLambert( jD, dT, planet1, planet2, dir ) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ Inputs ------ jD (1,1) Start Julian date dT (1,1) Transfer time (s) planet1 (1,:) Name of starting planet planet2 (1,:) Name of ending planet dir (1,1) Direction of transfer ------- Outputs ------- dV (1,1) Total delta-V dVA (1,1) First delta-V dVB (1,1) Second delta-V elT (1,6) Transfer elements [a i W w e M] --------------------------------------------------------------------------
