Required weight of spacecraft minimized. Report describes conceptual algorithm for guidance of spacecraft launched from surface of Mars. Spacecraft to carry canister of specimens from surface to another spacecraft in orbit about Mars; second spacecraft then to carry canister back to Earth. Algorithm sufficiently general to be adaptable to prediction/correction algorithms for other spacecraft configurations.
