a quasi-periodic orbit about a collinear libration point whose in-plane and out-of-plane frequencies differ, tracing a Lissajous figure.

In astrodynamics, Lissajous orbit refers to a quasi-periodic orbit about a collinear libration point whose in-plane and out-of-plane frequencies differ, tracing a Lissajous figure. This meaning comes from Farquhar (1973) in Celestial Mechanics.[1]
