hohmann transfer orbit, I read somewhere.
- rozab 6y agoHohmann transfer is for going between two bodies which are both orbiting a third, central body no?
- noitpmeder 6y agoI believe a Hohmann transfer is just a method of changing between two orbits of a central body. In this case it's just moving from it's intial orbit to the Moon's orbit, which are both around the Earth. The Hohmann transfer does not include the capture burn that is required to enter a sustained orbit around the Moon. Disclaimer, I'm just a KSP fan, so feel free to correct any of the above. Had to make an effort to use Moon, not Mun.
