This paper explores the uses of planar, simple-periodic symmetrical families of orbits in mission designs in the Earth-Moon system. This classification is defined as the planar periodic orbits that pierce the x-axis in the rotating frame exactly twice per orbit where each piercing is orthogonal to the x-axis. A continuation method has been used to explore several families of this class of orbit in the Earth-Moon restricted three-body system. The invariant manifolds of the unstable orbits in each of these families are then produced and several mission designs are discussed that take advantage of these manifolds. Focus is given to mission designs that implement resonant orbits that periodically fly by the moon.
