Neither orbit is perfectly circular; Earth has an orbital eccentricity of 0.0168, and Mars of 0.0934. The two orbits are not quite coplanar either, as the orbit of Mars is inclined by 1.85 degrees to that of Earth. The effect of the gravity of Mars on the cycler orbits is almost negligible, but that of the far more massive Earth needs to be ...
A lunar cycler or Earth–Moon cycler is a cycler orbit, or spacecraft therein, which periodically passes close by the Earth and the Moon, using gravity assists and occasional propellant-powered corrections to maintain its trajectories between the two. If the fuel required to reach a particular cycler orbit from both the Earth and the Moon is ...

It is possible to put stations or spacecraft on orbits that cycle between different planets, for example a Mars cycler would synchronously cycle between Mars and Earth, with very little propellant usage to maintain the trajectory. Cyclers are conceptually a good idea, because massive radiation shields, life support and other equipment only need ...
More than 120 customers across the Chicago metro area claim they were defrauded by the company, which has now closed its doors. Several lawsuits have been filed by customers and even owner Katie ...
Less than a year after it was spun off by Kellogg Co., Chicago-based Kellanova is set to be acquired by Mars, the companies announced Wednesday. Mars will buy Kellanova in a deal worth nearly $36 ...
Mars Wrigley is closing a nearly century-old chocolate plant on Chicago’s West Side once hailed as the most beautiful candy factory in America. Built in a Spanish-style architecture in 1928, the ...
The areosynchronous orbits (ASO) are the synchronous orbits for artificial satellites around the planet Mars. They are the martian equivalent of the geosynchronous orbits (GSO) on the Earth . The prefix areo- derives from Ares , the ancient Greek god of war and counterpart to the Roman god Mars , with whom the planet was identified.
