Scientific paper

The paper presents a systematic list of several dozen possible spacecraft trajectories to asteroids involving up to four flybys of Venus and up to two flybys of other planets. Asteroids that are closest to earth and the ecliptic plane can be reached most efficiently on trajectories with a two-fold perturbation or aerodynamic maneuver at Mars. More distant asteroids can be reached by an earth-Mars-asteroid trajectory involving a four-impulse ballistic maneuver at Mars; and by the following perturbation maneuvers: E-V-E-A, E-M-E-E-A, and E-V-E-M-A. Approximate calculations are compared with calculations for elliptical nocoplanar orbits during 1970-2000 with reference to the earth-Mars trajectory.
