# Interstellar Interceptors. Mission design for rendezvous with objects in hyperbolic orbits.





     

     

     




## About



This repository contains all the files required to generate my master's thesis

in astronomy and astrophysics. The report is titled **Interstellar Interceptors.

Mission design for rendezvous with objects in hyperbolic orbits.**



## Requirements



The following requirements apply for building this project:



- Make: https://www.gnu.org/software/make/

- LaTeX: https://www.latex-project.org/

- XeLaTeX: https://tug.org/xetex/



## About project structure



The project is divided into different directories, each one devoted to store a

particular type of information:



```

.

├── asy

├── bib

├── bin

├── dat

├── fig

│   └── static

├── main.tex

├── Makefile

├── README.md

├── src

└── tex

```



Within the `asy/` folder, all the scripts used for building the Asymptote based

figures are located. Their output will be temporary stored in the `fig/`

directory and removed after the PDF file has been successfully compiled. Notice

that the `static/` sub-directory holds figures which are not supposed to be

deleted after the cleaning process has been executed.



Regarding `bib/`, `src/` and `tex/` locations, they host all necessary style,

bibliography and work content files. The `main.tex` file is the one used to

control the rest of LaTeX files.



The `bin/` and `dat/` directories is where all binaries and databases used by

them are saved.



Finally the `Makefile` is where all auxiliary rules for automation are

described.



## Required dependencies for building the project
