Propellantless Gravity Assisted Acceleration in Two-Body Systems

Authors: Andris Atteka

Propellantless gravity assisted acceleration is a well known phenomena and has been practically used in spaceflight (e.g. Luna-3 and Voyager probes). However conventional propellantless acceleration in gravity field requires a three-body system. The fact that propellantless acceleration is possible also in two-body systems doesn’t appear to be widely known.
