Project Lyra trajectory visualisations
Mission animations
Visualisations of candidate trajectories for pursuing 1I/‘Oumuamua, generated from Project Lyra mission studies using OITS.
VEEMGA trajectory
A multiple-gravity-assist solution using encounters with Venus, Earth and Mars before the spacecraft departs towards 1I/‘Oumuamua.
VEEMGA mission geometry
VEEGA trajectory
A Venus–Earth–Earth gravity-assist sequence that progressively changes the spacecraft’s heliocentric orbit before the final interception leg.

10SR trajectory—two viewing angles
These animations show the same 10SR mission solution from complementary viewpoints. Keeping them together makes the three-dimensional trajectory easier to interpret.
10SR: oblique view
The overall geometry and repeated inner-Solar-System passages.
10SR: sideways view
A complementary perspective revealing the trajectory’s out-of-plane structure.
