EFFECT OF CUTOFF LATITUDE ON CUTOFF CONDITIONS FOR TRANSFER ORBITS TO VENUS

Abstract

The possible energy advantage to be gained by using a parking orbit for injecting into the hyperbolic escape was studied. This study may be helpful in the detection and tracking of un-ANNOUNCED SPACE PROBES, AND IN DEMONSTRATING THE ADVANTAGE OF USING PARKING ORBITS FOR U. S. space shots. (Author)
