delta v from moon to moon


Recommended Posts

I'm thinking of doing the Jool 5 challenge but I don't know how to calculate the delta v for all the transfers.

The delta v maps show what's needed to go from a moon to low Jool orbit and then back to a moon, but that seems like the least efficient way of doing it.

Does anyone have a rough idea?

dV map gives you everything you need if you can plot an intercept to a moon orbit. Aerobrake with Jool. Then it's matter of timing, patience and Hohmann transfers. You don't need to go all the way down to Jool to come back up, just enough (or enough dV) and that it.
