In this paper, it was studied the optimization of the cost of interplanetary missions with emphasis on reducing fuel consumption. To achieve this goal, a genetic algorithm was implemented to optimize the total impulse of orbital transfer. It was implemented a case of sending a space vehicle from Earth to a another planet using a gravity assist maneuver (swing by), in this paper it was chose sending a spacecraft from Earth to Mars with a close approach to the Venus. The method employed can be used for impulsive interplanetary missions in general, and so the solution found can become an initial solution for numerical methods of optimization of low thrust maneuvers
