Author: Tianjiang Shuo

Website: https://cislunarspace.cn

Definition

A lunar flyby transfer trajectory to libration point orbits that follows a relatively direct route to the rendezvous point after the powered lunar flyby maneuver. Compared with indirect flyby transfers, it has shorter transfer times but may require higher orbit insertion delta-V.

Application Value

The 直接飞越转移 concept is applied in cislunar space research, providing technical support or analytical methods for lunar exploration missions.
