Earth → Moon → Mars

Earth to Moon to Mars

LEO parking, lunar capture, one Moon revolution around Earth, then a Hohmann transfer to Mars. After TMI the Sun is shown as a curved spacetime well — the probe follows a geodesic on that surface, which is the orbit. The well is exaggerated (real solar rs ≈ 3 km). Drag to orbit, scroll to zoom.

• TLI Δv ≈ 3.11 km/s · TMI Δv ≈ 2.94 km/s
• Moon coast 4.98 d · Mars coast 258.9 d
• LLO 100 km · LMO 250 km
• Mars year 687 days
