Abstract: In this paper, we present the controllability properties of Keplerian motion controlled by low-thrust control systems. A low-thrust control system, compared with a high or an even impulsive control system, provides a fuel-efficient means to control the Keplerian motion of a satellite in the restricted two-body problem. We obtain that, for any positive value of maximum thrust, the motion is controllable ...
