             abstract = "This paper provides a preliminary study for a mission to the dwarf 
                         planet Haumea, focusing on the travel between the Earth and this 
                         Kuiper Belt Object (KBO). We generate a set of transfer 
                         trajectories from the Earth to Haumea using the patched-conic 
                         motion model taking into account close approaches with the 
                         planets, as well as direct transfers Earth-Haumea. Among several 
                         possibilities of trajectories, we study in details the 
                         Earth-Jupiter-Haumea transfer and the Earth-Saturn-Haumea 
                         transfer. For each one of these transfers we calculate the launch 
                         and arrival windows, showing the minimum total \V (launch 
                         phase) of the transfer and the excess velocity in the arrival at 
                         Haumea, for several times of flight. For the trajectory 
                         Earth-Jupiter-Haumea, we also found asteroids of the main belt 
                         which could be reached during the transfer. The mid-term 2020-2035 
                         was proposed for the launch of this mission. Since the exploration 
                         of the Haumea system involves close approaches to the two moons of 
                         Haumea, we made an additional study of the effect of these close 
                         approaches. The exploration of the Haumea system can provide 
                         important information about the formation of the KBOs and, 
                         consequently, about the Solar System itself. We expect that our 
                         results will be useful for a real mission in the future.",
