The history of astronautics, its origins with Johannes Kepler, and Walter Hohmann's contribution are described. Hohmann based his theory of astronautics on Keplers laws of orbital mechanics. Kepler's law serves as the foundation for modern space mechanics and provides fast rough calculations for aeronautic measurements. The Hohmann trajectories serve as the obvious foundation of contemporary space technology, providing mathematical transparence and simplicity in the planning of space flights.
