Abstract
Analytic research was conducted to determine disposal reachability about orbit families in L1, L2, and L4 Lagrange points. Candidate orbits were selected based on lower stability index in the respective orbit families about the Lagrange points. Initial considerations for the delta-v applied about the orbit families began at a magnitude corresponding to current geosynchronous orbit disposal maneuvers. This research analyzed candidate orbit families and determined groupings of low-cost delta-v transfers to determine reachability of possible maneuvers for graveyard orbits or escape trajectories.
