✦ Synopsis

Consider the Earth-Moon-particle system as a Restricted Three Body Problem. There are two equilateral libration points. In the actual world system, those points are no longer relative equilibrium points mainly due to the effect of the Sun and to the noncircular motion of the Moon around the Earth. In this paper we present the problem as a perturbation of the RTBP and we look for the dynamical equivalent of L4,s. It turns out to be a quasiperiodic orbit. It is obtained for a simplified model but the procedure to obtain it is general and can be carried out with an additional computational effort.

The translational-rotational motion of an orbital station in the Earth-Moon system is investigated. The orbital station is regarded as a body of variable composition with a solid shell and a low-thrust jet engine placed on it, having constant autonomous orientation in a system of coordinates rotatin
