DVOHohmn:

Path: Orbit/OrbitManeuver

% Delta-v for injection into an interplanetary orbit using Olberth's method. 
   First put the spacecraft into an elliptic orbit with a low perigee then do 
   the delta-v to infinity


        ?---------> Direction of planet
       / psi
      /    ---------> Departure hyperbola asymptote

   Since version 1.
