ABSTRACT:
Satellite and method for placing said satellite in orbit by lunar gravitational assistance.
After placing the satellite into standard orbit (01) within a quasi-equatorial plane, the satellite is transferred onto a circumlunar orbit (02) so that the satellite traverses the sphere of influence S1 of the moon. On leaving this sphere, the orbit (03) is inside a plane inclined with respect to the equatorial plane. The orbit is then connected to the definitive orbit (04).
