abstract = "Near-Earth Asteroids (NEA) tell us a lot about the early Solar
System. Space missions aimed to those objects can provide
information for a better understanding of physical and chemical
processes of Earth's formation. In this perspective, it is
necessary to invest in optimized techniques orbital transfer able
to achieve these objects with reduced spent fuel. In this paper,
we explore the dynamics of unstable periodic orbits around the
Lagrangian point L1 and the gravitational influence of the moon in
order to get the energy needed to overcome the gravity of the
Earth-Moon system and reach a NEA. The fuel consumption in this
kind of maneuver is less than that required in other approaches.
The escape trajectories obtained present sensitive dependence on
initial conditions and can be judiciously controlled by small
perturbations so that they are targeted to specific regions of the
Solar System, being propitious mainly for missions whose targets
belong to Apollos and Atens classes.",
