Comparisons made between lunar trajectories calculated by using classic restricted 3-body equations of motion and lunar trajectories (with identical injection conditions) calculated by using equations of motion which include terms representing additional effects; results give indication of whether these additional considerations should be included in calculations for particular lunar missions.
