Trans-Lunar Injection (TLI) is a propulsive maneuver used to set a spacecraft on a trajectory that will cause it to arrive at the Moon. A spacecraft performs TLI to begin a lunar transfer from a low circular parking orbit around Earth.

The numbers depicted here indicate the mass capability at the Trans-Lunar Injection point.
