                         long time in the scientific literature, but it gained more 
                         possibilities with the discovery of planets around other stars 
                         besides our Sun. In this sense, similarly to what happens in our 
                         Solar System, moons of planets sometimes offer good conditions for 
                         life if stable orbits for those moons exist. Thus, the present 
                         paper analyzes a system composed of a moon (with the mass of the 
                         Earth) orbiting a planet (with the mass of Jupiter), which is 
                         orbiting a double star system (whose total mass is equal to the 
                         mass of the Sun). It is an important topic because there is a 
                         large proportion of double stars in the universe. The initial 
                         conditions are given by a symmetric configuration of two circular 
                         orbits. Although this symmetry is broken due to the four body 
                         dynamics, the conditions in which the moon remains bound with the 
                         planet are investigated. The stability of the system is given by 
                         the survival of the orbit of the moon for an integration time of 
                         the order of 10,000 revolutions of the satellite around its mother 
                         planet. The regions of stable, unstable, and collision orbits are 
                         mapped, and empirical linear equations that separate those regions 
                         are obtained from the maps.",
