Lunar Landing Window

Definition

The time window permitting a lunar landing mission, jointly determined by ground launch windows, transfer trajectory constraints, and lunar orbit rendezvous conditions. For stations on three-body periodic orbits, the synodic-frame station position is fixed and the three-body system is autonomous, making launch windows arbitrary for lunar-gravity-assist transfers.
