This article presents the optimized design, analysis and calculation concerning the trajectory of a lunar polar probe. Firstly, the trajectory design principles and constraints are determined. The preliminary design and analysis of the circumlunar orbit, transfer orbit to the moon and earth parking orbit are carried out separately and some computations for the flight trajectory concept have been made too. To reduce the fuel needed for error in orbital maneuver efficiently and satisfy the requirements on the launch window, some detailed design and analysis for the rather advanced phasing earth-moon transfer orbit are given here and also the strategy for optimum orbit correction.
