Scientific paper

Characteristics of the motion of lunar satellites in the vicinity of a libration point are investigated by methods of qualitative analysis. The moon is treated as a body with unequal main central moments of inertia which slowly rotates at a constant angular velocity around the smaller main central axis of inertia. It is shown, in particular, that the Hill region increases and the Darwin curves decrease in size with increasing satellite height over the lunar surface.
