    The purpose of this paper is to study the numerical calculation and stability of the spatial doubly symmetric periodic orbits (SDSPs) in circular restricted three-body problem (CRTBP) and Hill's lunar problem, comet-and lunar-type (if there exist orbits very far away from the primaries, these orbits are the comet type, and if there exist orbits around and very close to one primary are Hill type). Although some SDSPs have been calculated before, the author's research is new, including the algorithm and results. Doubly symmetries are used so that the SDSPs can be computed efficiently. The periodicity conditions solved by Broyden's method with a line-search, some numerical examples show that the scheme is very efficient. There exist sixteen cases of initial values, for a fixed period ratio and a given acute angle, for each comet-type or Hill-type resonant period ratio and have been found. Numerical research on the SDSPs has been done systematically, and the numerical way to study the linear stability of the SDSPs is supplied. Finally, some numerical examples are given, for the problem of equal masses in RTBP known as the ``Copenhagen problem'', for the Sun-Jupiter case, and for the Hill-type SDSPs in Hill's lunar problem.
