A FORTRAN PROGRAM TO CALCULATE BOOST PHASE TRAJECTORIES

Abstract

This computer program provides launch to burnout, two-dimensional, point mass trajectories. It is a very flexible program in that it may be based on a large variety of conditions used to control the program. The standard atmospheric conditions and gravitational field are included. The two versions of this program are written in FORTRAN II. The most flexible version, SP11A, is card tape approach, but it requires a longer run time. The SP11B is the all- card approach. It can be used on either the IBM 1410 computer or the IBM 1620 equipped to use FORTRAN II.
