Temporarily-captured Natural Earth Satellites (NES) are very appealing targets for space missions for many reasons. Indeed, NES get captured by the Earth's gravity for some period of time, making for a more cost-effective and time-effective mission compared to a deep-space mission, such as the 7-year Hayabusa mission. Moreover, their small size introduces the possibility of returning with the entire temporarily-captured orbiter (TCO) to Earth. Additionally, NES can be seen as interesting targets when examining figures of their orbits. It requires to expand the current state-of-art of the techniques in geometric optimal control applied to low-thrust orbital transfers. Based on a catalogue of over sixteen-thousand NES, and assuming ionic propulsion for the spacecraft, we compute time minimal rendezvous missions for more than $96%$ of the NES. The time optimal control transfers are calculated using classical indirect methods of optimal control based on the Pontryagin Maximum Principle. Additionally we verify the local optimality of the transfers using second order conditions.

Keywords: natural Earth satellites, Control theory, orbital transfer, temporarily captured orbiters..
