Examined by:Collins; Timothy D

A method is disclosed for designing an orbit of a spacecraft which allows the spacecraft to take a small-radius halo orbit near a Lagrange point while avoiding the prohibited zone where the spacecraft may be shadowed or might be prevented from making communication. The method makes it possible to have a closed orbit although being similar to a Lissajous orbit, under a restricted condition where a propulsion force magnitude applied to a spacecraft is fixed, and where it rotates at a constant angular velocity, based on the equation of motion close to a Lagrange point. The method also provide a theory for guiding/controlling the orbit of a spacecraft, that is, the embodiment of the above orbit design method.
