ICE experienced a successful encounter with Comet Giacobini-Zinner on September 11, 1985. The comet-intercept trajectory, earth-return trajectory, and two cases of a possible 2014 capture trajectory are presented. Also, the essential propulsive trajectory correction maneuvers and the projected August 10, 2014 lunar swingby maneuver are discussed. The targeting methodology used for designing the trajectories is also discussed.
