The problem of determining the optimal impulsive guidance policy for an interplanetary spacecraft is studied. The problem is treated as a stochastic optimal control problem with control-dependent errors. The performance index gives an upper bound for the probability that the mission fails. The results obtained here are applied to a Jupiter planetary fly-by, and the numerical results indicate that consideration of the control dependent errors is considerably significant.
