| Popis: | In a continuation of previous research where the problem was studied for the Earth-sun system, we search for transfer orbits from one body back to the same body (known in the literature as Henon's problem) in the Earth-moon system. In particular, we are searching for orbits that can be used in three situations: 1) to transfer a spacecraft from the moon back to the moon (passing close to the Lagrangian point L$ in most of the cases); 2) to transfer a spacecraft from the moon to the respective Lagrangian points L$, L^ and LS; and 3) to transfer a spacecraft to an orbit that passes close to the moon and to the Earth several times, with the goal of building a transportation system between these two celestial bodies. The model used for the dynamics is the planar and circular restricted three-body problem. The global Lemaltre regularization is used to avoid numerical problems during close approaches. An interesting result that was obtained in this research is a family of transfer orbits from the moon back to the moon that requires an impulse with magnitude lower than the escape velocity from the |
