In astronomy, lunar orbit (also known as a selenocentric orbit) is the orbit of an object around the Moon.

The Moon from lunar orbit, with planet Earth rising over the horizon, taken on the Apollo 8 mission by astronaut William Anders on December 24, 1968.

As used in the space program, this refers not to the orbit of the Moon about the Earth, but to orbits by various manned or unmanned spacecraft around the Moon. The altitude at apoapsis (point farthest from the center of attraction) for a lunar orbit is known as apolune, apocynthion, or aposelene, while the periapsis (point closest to the center of attraction) is known as perilune, pericynthion, or periselene, from names or epithets of the moon goddess.

Low lunar orbit (LLO) are orbits below 100 km (62 mi) altitude. They have a period of about 2 hours.[1] They are of particular interest in exploration of the Moon, but suffer from gravitational perturbation effects that make most unstable, and leave only a few orbital inclinations possible for indefinite frozen orbits, useful for long-term stays in LLO.[1]

Answer:

The orbital path of the earth and the moon are not in the same plane.The moon revolutionary orbits makes an angle of about 5 degree with the earth .As a result, the moon intersects the plane of the earth's orbit twice during one revolution

I hope it's help a lot
