| Sponsor | National Aeronautics & Space Administration (Other-Fed) |
| Summary | The objective of this proposal is to determine a practical implementation of a fuel-efficient singular burn for Moon-Earth transfers using some combination of the main and accessory engines. A complementary problem is to design an emergency return trajectory using the accessory engines alone. |
