The Effects of Moon’s Uneven Mass Distribution on the Critical Inclinations of a Lunar Orbiter
The uneven mass distribution of the Moon highly perturbs the lunar spacecrafts. This uneven mass distribution leads to peculiar dynamical features of the lunar orbiters. The critical inclination is the value of inclination which keeps the deviation of the argument of pericentre from the initial va...
