Thanks Tommy, I am getting it right away...:tiphat:

Thanks Agent Gonzo! -I would add that the Sun's gravitational effect is sometimes overlooked in this situation. True, its field is more uniform near Earth but its magnitude is generally far greater than the Moon's field. -The same high orbit intercept can be performed on moonless Venus with high...

Thank You Flytandem, -A good feature of Trans X is that even though the DV can drift, the burn itself when executed will still be fairly accurate because the final trajectory is rotated by that normal component of the burn...this was obviously well thought out it seems. -one question, do You...

Thank you Fly Tandem! ---------- Post added at 02:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:14 PM ---------- One other observation: These DV drift effects also happen when interplanetary gravitational effects become significant, for example in high orbits about the Earth. I suspect that Trans X...

where do i post the scenario...I am new to this site...thanks

..it happens with all types of crafts, the accumulation of large errors is after several orbits but in comparison there is no accumulation of errors on the video tutorial I found on the net depicting an Iss intersect. ---------- Post added at 06:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:45 PM...

Help! I am attempting to meet up with Iss using Trans X. from an orbit below. But unable to do so. 1- orbital planes aligned 2- DV for pro grade established to raise orbit to intersect Iss path 3- date established for burn initiation The problem occurs during fast forwarding to the actual burn...
