Summary

Description
English: Figures 1 and 2 depict the trajectory that will be used to target the LCROSS Centaur upper stage and Shepherding Spacecraft into a North or South Pole crater. The 86-day (5 day earth-lunar transit plus 81 day earth orbit) Lunar Gravity-Assist, Lunar Return Orbit (LGALRO) was chosen to allow LRO time to complete its two-month commissioning phase and conduct nearly a month of science data collection of polar crater measurements.
