(HP-65) Analytic solution for low thrust out of ecliptic mission design - SlideRule - 08-03-2023 12:43 PM

A small challenge for so inclined:

the attached PDF is an extract (pgs. 6-7) from AIAA Paper 75-54 presented at the AIAA 13th Aerospace Sciences Meeting held in Pasadena, Calif./January 20-22, 1975 containing three (3) somewhat discernible {standard format} programs for the HP-65; 1) Low thrust Inclination changes for circular base orbit, 2) Spacecraft mass at time t & 3) Inclination correction. I am somewhat reticent to post the complete paper considering the legibility of the hand written code.

any takers to confirm the Program Documentation ?

BEST!
