摘要
Moons of the outer planets harbor great treasures of science, but landing on these bodies to study them up-close is a very difficult task. Two characteristics of an approach-trajectory that would help enable such a mission are: (1) the spacecraft can observe its target site prior to landing, and (2) the spacecraft can abort the landing in the event of a problem and easily come back later. Each of these requirements relies on repeatability in the multi-body problem, which is non-trivial to achieve. In the current work, stable and nearly-stable periodic orbits about Europa which offer solutions to the problem of repeatability for landing are studied. 17 total solutions are identified in a perturbed three-body problem which accounts for J(2) and C-22 of Europa.
