Abstract

Venus is our sister planet which is less explored because of its atmosphere. It is unique in the sense of its rotation. It rotates in opposite direction. Its brightness as natural objects comes as second after Moon in the night sky. Indian space research organization (ISRO) has planned to send Shukrayan-I in 2023 to explore the surface and atmosphere of Venus. In this paper Venus-satellite and sun are considered in the mathematical model of "circular restricted three body problem".Since Venus is very near to the Sun so it is important to study the radiation pressure and its effect on the halo orbit through more accurate and modern technique. Here the continuation method up to fourth order approximation (recently introduced) have been used to analyze halo orbits around L-points i.e. L1 and L2.

Keywords

Restricted three body problem; "Photogravitational"; "Halo orbits".
