Abstract :
Periodic orbits have been studied more extensively by space mission designers in recent years. These orbits are usually described as planar in three-body-problems. In this article, in addition to introducing a new orbit that turns around a secondary mass, applications in Moon-based, Earth-based, and interplanetary missions are also described. Floquet exponents as chaos indicators and normal potential levels for orbits are also calculated. The advantages of their use as space station orbits are studied at the end of the article.
