Third-Body Perturbation in Orbits Around Natural Satellites
TL;DR: An analytical and a numerical study of the perturbation imparted to a spacecraft by a third body is developed in this paper, where the authors study the evolution of orbits around some important natural satellites of the solar system, such as the moon, the Galilean satellites of Jupiter, Titan, Titania, Triton and Charon.
Journal ArticleDOI
Some orbital characteristics of lunar artificial satellites
TL;DR: In this paper, an analytical theory with numerical simulations to study the orbital motion of lunar artificial satellites is presented, considering the problem of an artificial satellite perturbed by the non-uniform distribution of mass of the Moon and by a third body in elliptical orbit (Earth is considered).

Journal ArticleDOI
Traveling between the lagrangian points and the earth
TL;DR: In this article, the minimum energy trajectories to transfer a spacecraft between the five Lagrangian points and Earth were considered. And the planar circular restricted three-body problem in two dimensions was used as the model for the Earth-Moon system, and Lemaitre regularization was used to avoid singularities.
