Abstract
There are many problems in Celestial Mechanics which can be reduced to differential equations, either linear or nonlinear. We expose some of them for which it is possible to obtain the exact solutions. The corresponding differential equations are derived from various models, such as the three-body circular restricted problem or the inverse problem of Dynamics. These equations can be exposed to the students from high school or from the faculties of sciences in order to understand the importance of the study of differential equations. They will also learn to apply their knowledge to solving problems related to phenomena of real world.
