This chapter identifies NASA websites that can be used for background studies for small bodies. A computer tool for use in designing trajectory correction maneuvers, together with examples, the description of the computer algorithm, and a brief discussion of some maneuver constraints follow. Finally, two methods for designing free-return circumlunar trajectories for use in ensuring as much as possible the safe return of humans from the Moon are described.
