Abstract
We have seen what it takes, in terms of energy and transfer time, to reach another planet from Earth. However we have also seen that for many planets, in particular Mercury and the outer planets, the energy levels are too high to reach for current launchers. In this chapter we take a closer look at the concept of gravity assist maneuvers, and what the impact is on the transfer energy.
