                         transfers between noncoplanar elliptical orbits with minimum time 
                         for a prescribed fuel consumption. We used the equations presented 
                         by Eckel and Vinh, add some new equations to consider cases with 
                         different geometries, and solved those equations to develop a 
                         software for orbital maneuvers. This software can be used in the 
                         next missions developed by INPE. The original method developed by 
                         Eckel and Vinh was presented without numerical results in that 
                         paper. Thus, the modifications considering cases with different 
                         geometries, the implementation and the solutions using this method 
                         are contributions of this work. The software was tested in real 
                         applications with success.",
