Abstract
A technique of generation of spatial periodic solutions to the restricted circular three-body problem from periodic orbits of the planar problem has been used for the families of orbits around collinear libration points L 1 and L 2. Developing the families obtained at the 1: 1 resonance, we have obtained stable solutions both in the Earth-Moon system and in the Sun-Earth system. Of course, the term “around the libration point” is rather conventional; the obtained orbits become more similar to the orbits around the smaller attracting body. The further development of the family of orbits “around” the libration point L 2 in the Sun-Earth system made it possible to find the orbits satisfying the new, much more rigorous constraints on cooling the spacecraft of the Millimetron project.
