Study on low-thrust trajectories for Earth-Moon transfers - 2026_IDR_DAER_11

The program aims to study low-thrust orbits for transfers between Earth and the Moon. The work will focus on the design and analysis of various transfer options, varying initial orbits, final orbits, spacecraft characteristics, and transfer characteristics. Subsequently, possible return and reentry trajectories will also be characterized. Finally, the various solutions identified will be compared with impulsive options.
