Preliminary Capture Trajectory Design for Europa Tomography Probe

The objective of this work is the preliminary design of a low-ΔV transfer from an initial elliptical orbit around Jupiter into a final circular orbit around the moon Europa. This type of trajectory represents an excellent opportunity for a low-cost mission to Europa, accomplished through a small orb...
