🌌 Borrowing the Orbits of Giants: How Gravity Assists Carry Spacecraft into the Deep
From section: 🪐 The Core Idea of a Gravity AssistThe key is that the planet itself is moving. When a spacecraft approaches from behind a planet along its orbital path, the planet’s gravity pulls the spacecraft into a curved path and effectively drags it forward. The spacecraft leaves the encounter moving faster relative to the Sun than when it arrived. …
