3The Generalized Three-Body Problem
"three body problem" is the solution of the
motion of three bodies under their mutual
attraction. General three-body motion has
chaotic properties. Even the general "restricted
three body problem" where one of the bodies is
very small--e.g. Earth, Moon and spacecraft--is
analytically Insoluble Solutions must be
generated using numerical simulation Specific
solutions exist, like the ones in which the
spacecraft is positioned at one of the Lagrange
points.
