Usually, they are done for a combination of fuel (i.e., cost) savings and speed, as it is sometimes faster to take multiple trips around planets in the inner solar system to reach locations in the outer solar system more quickly. Lucy recently made such a maneuver on its … Continue reading 'Lucy Zipped Past Earth to get a Gravitational Assist Towards Jupiter’s Trojans'
