ATIG Members-

Attached is a draft article intended for publication in AIAA-Houston
Section's Jan-Feb 2012 newsletter (author deadline is 8 Feb).  I believe
this to be the most lucid account of when Phobos-Grunt could have departed
Earth for Mars under at least two scenarios which became hopelessly confused
during November 2011.  Except for the "TBS" Phobos-Grunt orbit decay date on
p. 2 (current predictions are converging on 15 Jan), I believe this draft is
complete.  Any corrections or suggestions you care to send are invited.
