In 1969 Neil Armstrong announced a safe touchdown on the moon with the words 'The Eagle has Landed'. "Eagle" was the name of the Lunar Module, the spacecraft...
This issue is explained in quite a lot of detail in the video. There do exist some stable orbits despite the lumpiness, and it’s possible to simulate the orbit (stable or not) of any given object given its initial parameters. Guess what was the starting point for the analysis they did in the video?
