Abstract:Specific application of satellites require the building and maintenance of orbits with high altitude. In these cases, conventional orbital transfer methods may prove to be infeasible, especially with respect to fuel consumption. In this work we present an alternative strategy for an orbital transfer of a spacecraft from a low circular orbit to a high and retrograde orbit in the Earth-Moon System. Considering a four-body scenario, the technique consists in the use of appropriate perturbations applied around uns… Show more
