Abstract
Deep space exploration is gradually becoming the hot mission of human space activities, and this kind of mission has the characteristics of a long mission cycle, complex space environment, high fuel demand, and difficult telemetry track and command, etc. It is the future trend to carry out deep space exploration activities using low-thrust propulsion systems, and the trajectory optimization of interplanetary missions is one of the significant difficulties. Considering the characteristics and difficulties of interplanetary missions, a method of transfer orbit preliminary design in the multi-body system is proposed in this paper. The simulation results illustrate that the transfer orbit obtained by the method in this paper can provide a reliable initial guess for the optimization of high-precision orbit and decrease convergence sensitivity. The research results can provide a significant reference for the implementation of deep space exploration missions in China in the future.
