Propulsion Aspects of Unmanned and Manned Lunar Landings

Propulsion Aspects of Unmanned and Manned Lunar Landings

Direct vertical descent and descent from an intermediate<br />lunar parking orbit are discussed. The difference in philosophy between<br />langing a payload of instruments and of humans is considered in some<br />detail. The " human return to eartli &qu...
