An analytical method for improving upper estimates of the distances between bodies in the restricted three-body problem is proposed for the case where the constant of the energy integral is negative and sufficient conditions for absolute Hill stability of the motion of the fixed pair of bodies are satisfied. A theorem concerning conditional boundedness of the motion is proven, and some problems involving the sun, Jupiter, and Saturn as well as the sun, earth, and Jupiter are evaluated as examples. The theorem is used to show that if the sun-earth separation were ever to equal 0.1 AU, the distance of Jupiter from their center of mass would still be less than 12.96 AU.
