Zur numerischen Lösung von Randwertaufgaben des eingeschränkten Dreikörperproblems

A two-page offprint (Sonderdruck) from Luftfahrttechnik Raumfahrttechnik (Vol. 14, 1968, pp. 220–221) presenting a numerical method for solving boundary value problems in the restricted three-body problem (Earth–Moon–spacecraft). The authors use the AEG-Telefunken Rechenanlage BA 741 analog computer to compute minimum-flight-time trajectories for an infinitesimal body (spacecraft) between two circular orbits in the rotating coordinate frame. Two distinct trajectory solutions are found and illustrated graphically.
