General equations for optimum interplanetary transfer with constant thrust are developed; transversality condition which is necessary for open final time can be replaced by vastly arbitrary choice of one initial condition; numerical results for absolute optimum Mars flights are stated; optimum exhaust velocity results from them. Pt 1 indexed in Engineering Index 1963 p 2005.
