... L OW-THRUST station-keeping and orbital rendezvous in cis-lunar space play a key role for long-term solar system exploration missions as well as lunar landing [1]. In particular, parking orbits in the lunar vicinity are receiving increasing attention from several space agencies [2]. ...
... The DROs, however, exist mainly in the Earth-Moon orbital plane. DROs are potential hosts for the proposed propellant depots, that reduce the costs of accessing various cislunar orbits and enable transfer options to interplanetary orbits [3,4]. The lunar distant retrograde orbit, approximately 70,000 km from the Moon, served as the baseline for the previously investigated Asteroid Redirect Mission (ARM) [5]. ...
