This transfer, called a low-energy transfer, proved to work in 1991 when a Japanese satellite successfully went in orbit around the moon using this technique. Since then, more research has been conducted to prove that a low-energy transfer can be accomplished between the moons of Jupiter. In the case of this current paper, it is shown that a low-energy transfer is possible from Earth to Mars using similar techniques as between the Jovian moons. This paper examines the existence of a low-energy transfer between the Earth and Mars. It begins by outlining the equilibrium point...
