Cislunar Transfers

Cislunar Transfers is an orbital transfer maneuver that involves the trajectory and propulsion strategies for spacecraft traveling between Earth and the region of space surrounding the Moon, distinguished from other interorbital transfers by its specific focus on Earth–Moon system dynamics, including gravitational influences and libration point utilization.
