Summary
[edit]DescriptionBi-elliptic transfer.svg | A bi-elliptic transfer from a low circular starting orbit (dark blue), to a higher circular orbit (red). The spaceship is traveling in a counterclockwise direction during all segments of the orbital transfer as is indicated by the large blue and red arrows. When the spacecraft arrives at point 1 it performs a prograde burn to enter the first portion of the transfer orbit (blue-green segment). It then coasts until apoapsis of this transfer orbit located at point 2 where another prograde burn is performed to raise the point of periapsis until it coincides with the orbital radius of the desired orbit. The spacecraft then turns off its engine again and coasts along the yellow segment until it arrives at point 3. The maneuver is completed by performing a retrograde burn at point 3 to slow the spacecraft down and lower apoapsis until the orbit is circular again. | ||
