Abstract

We consider the problem of constructing Pontryagin extremals for the optimal control task of asteroid fly-by. This problem is a part of a large optimization problem posed on the Third Global Trajectory Optimization Competition. Information about the competition and problem details can be found at http://www2.polito.it/eventi/gtoc3.
