Definition
An approximation in the circular restricted three-body problem that combines the Earth and Moon into a single second primary. The resulting mass ratio is approximately 3.04×10⁻⁶, and the parking orbit radius is adjusted accordingly. Due to the small mass ratio, this approximation provides accurate results for the duration of the transfer.
