A satellite with a high eccentricitye≃0.95 is strongly perturbed by the sun and the moon. This fact and mission constraints restrict considerably the possible launch times for such a satellte. The launch window calculations can be performed in two steps in order to save computing time. An approximate analytical solution provides a general survey of the launch opportunities. An accurate numerical approach is then necessary for the exact definition of the launch window. In the case of the orbit of HEOS-1 (satellite 68 10901), moreover the consideration of the injection errors has been of great importance.
