The restricted three-body system is taken as a first approximation to the earthmoon satellite system, and a ballistic trajectory is considered, with a firing point near the earth, so that the object will become, at least temporarily, a satellite of the moon. The general plan is as follows: a satellite is launched consisting of a payload and large balloon or sail to be deployed after the complex achieves orbit. Insertion conditions are chosen so that the combined gravitational action of the moon and the radiation pressure of the sun permit capture by the moon after the satellite has made a small number of revolutions around the earth. At an appropriate instant, the balloon or sail is seperated from the payload to cut off radiation pressure of the sun permit capture by the moon after the satellite has made a small number of revolutions around the earth. At an appropriate instant, the balloon or sail is seperated from the payload to cut off radiation pressure and to permit the payload to remain in stable orbit around the moon. Three basic capture orbits and two variations of the second capture orbit were calculated.
