Control of node crossing points in Saturnian gravity-assist toursIn the Saturnian system, the control of the node crossing point is important to avoid debris in Saturn's ring plane and to target flybys of moons other than Titan. This paper describes how to use Titan gravity assists to control the spacecraft's node crossing point.
