Abstract The problem of constructing periodic orbits for a spacecraft with low thrust in the gravitational field of the attraction of two massive bodies is studied. It is assumed that mass of one of the bodies is much greater than mass of the other body, the bodies revolve in circular orbits around a common center of mass, reactive acceleration w constant in modulus at all time of the motion is directed to one of the points of the moving Ox axis, and the spacecraft trajectory is a flat curve. The existence of periodic orbits of the first kind is proved, when the spacecraft orbital period is equal to the period of undisturbed circular orbit or depends on a small parameter. On the basis of numerical calculations a family of disturbed periodic orbits close to the circular is constructed.
