Popis: | We build a Kepler model of spacecraft gravity assist maneuver near a Venus-type planet and investigate its sensitivity to changes of the impact parameter. Analytical and numerical computations give similar results indicating a great increase of the trajectory final point shift under a small variation of the assigned spacecraft-planet distance. |
