Role of flight path selection in construction of basic mission profile and study of launch- and encounter-related parameters for totality of Earth-Mars ballistic transfers; initial reductions of available trajectories resulted from tradeoffs in spacecraft weight, injection energy, and launch-period duration; criteria used in selecting aiming point at Mars and final post-injection trajectory characteristics; trajectories are compared with actual flight path results showing high accuracy of achieved Mars flyby; post-encounter heliocentric orbit and possibility of re-establishing communication during close approach to Earth in Sept 1967 are discussed.
