The JUICE Lunar-Earth Gravity Assist: from Inception to Completion
ORB - Mécanique Orbitale
In
August
2024,
the
JUICE
spacecraft
performed
a
very
special
manoeuvre:
the
first-ever
Lunar-Earth
gravity
assist
(LEGA)
manoeuvre.
The
concept
was
invented
at
ESOC

was
carefully
studied
to
ultimately
include
it
in
the
JUICE
baseline.
Once
in
flight,
the
key
was
accuracy
and
safety.
These
aspects
were
successfully
handled
by
