Did you know that the fuel consumption for a Martian visit can be as low as what it takes for a lunar voyage? Courtesy, Gravity assist. In a twist of irony,Gravity, the one thing that keeps us on earth and stops us from flying off into space, can be used to launch satellites into deep space to escape earths grasp. I remember solving physics Olympiad problems pertaining to this subject back in high school. Mad props to the scientists and engineers who left no stone unturned in seeking out ways to be fuel/cost efficient. (y) (y)
