The existence of invariant tori in Celestial Mechanics has been widely investigated through implementations of the Kolmogorov-Arnold-Moser (KAM) theory. We provide an introduction to some results on the existence of maximal and low-dimensional, rotational and librational tori for models of Celestial Mechanics: from the spin--orbit problem to the three-body and planetary models. We also briefly review a result on dissipative invariant attractors for the spin-orbit problem, whose existence is proven through a dissipative KAM theorem.
Keywords: Celestial Mechanics, Invariant tori., KAM theory.
