Three-body Trajectory Dynamics

Three-Body Trajectory Dynamics is a theoretical framework in astrodynamics that models the motion of a spacecraft under the gravitational influence of three celestial bodies, distinguishing itself from general trajectory models by explicitly accounting for the coupled nonlinear interactions and chaotic behavior arising from the restricted three-body problem.
