In interplanetary travel it will be necessary for spaceship to engage in correctional maneuver to neighboring trajectory to improve its subsequent dynamic behavior; it is obligatory to perform flight with least expenditure of fuel; for correctional maneuver, standards of approximation are developed by which extent of proximity to true or exact values can be ascertained numerically for dependent variables and burning time; numerical verification is given by examining example and comparing results with exact solution, obtained by numerical integration.
