Accessing interplanetary space is challenging when using low thrust systems. Injecting spacecraft onto interplanetary trajectories is difficult with small launch vehicles, but it is possible to instead transfer to an interplanetary trajectory from a lunar flyby. Such cases are useful, for example, in rideshares between lunar and interplanetary missions. This work examines the problem of rideshare for small satellites onto lunar flyby trajectories, with transfers to an interplanetary trajectory. Low thrust interplanetary trajectories are examined starting from a rideshare mission on a lunar trajectory using delivery systems based on a modified Rocket Lab USA Electron vehicle and Photon stage.
