A complete solution to a simple rendezvous problem
Abstract
Graphs are given so that one can get all of the numbers
associated with the optimum orbit-transfer problem described
here. It is hoped that the ease and speed with which the solution
can be obtained will make the simple case of interest. .
An elementary proof is given·that the solution furnishes the
desired optimum.
