The methods used by our team are described. These methods involve: mothership targeting flyby to target high-value stars using a single impulse, fast ships targeting the edge of the galaxy and settler ships having a fast expansion, time-optimal three impulse transfer strategy to select the targets to get fast and wide spatial distribution. It is seen that there is a scope of improvement with respect to multi-star targeting for motherships. The results of the strategy are discussed.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2011.00226v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2011.00226v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"gtoc-x-karmarkar-s-gang-s-approach-and","repo_url":"https://github.com/visheshv/settlers_of_galaxy","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
