Complex planetary missions, such as the CAPSTONE lunar orbital insertion, often rely on multi-burn maneuvers to achieve highly precise trajectories and conserve propellant. This advanced technique goes beyond a single engine firing, fundamentally changing how spacecraft navigate. This article explains what is multi-burn technology and why it is critical for modern space exploration, from orbital adjustments to deep-space probes.

According to aerospace medical studies, sustained high G-force exposure can significantly impair cerebral blood flow, a primary cause of G-induced Loss of Consciousness (G-LOC). Understanding what G-force does to the body reveals the extreme challenges faced by pilots and astronauts in high-acceleration environments.
