Invariant manifolds in the restricted three-body
problem are a powerful tool for the design of spacecraft
trajectories. This talk discusses a fully numerical scheme
for computing families of quasi-periodic tori and their
associated stable and unstable manifolds. A general approach
is presented along with examples from the circular and
elliptic restricted three-body problems. Including
quasi-periodic orbits along with periodic orbits in the
design space offers additional low-energy transfer options.
