Definition

The duration of flight along an invariant manifold from the injection point on a periodic orbit. Together with the injection point parameter ΔtP0, it forms the dual-parameter coordinate on the manifold. In the paper, the manifold time of flight is set to 90 days for Lyapunov orbits and 30 days for Halo orbits. This parameter is one of the core variables for constructing the polyhedral representation.
