A Form 4 filing filed with the SEC on Monday, September 21 showed that Oneil James F bought 20,000 shares of Orbital Energy Group Inc (NASDAQ:OEG) at an average price of $0.54. The transaction ...
The characteristic energy with respect to Sun was negative, and MAVEN – instead of heading to infinity – entered an elliptical orbit around the Sun. But the maximal velocity on the new orbit could be approximated to 33.5 km/s by assuming that it reached practical "infinity" at 3.5 km/s and that such Earth-bound "infinity" also moves with ...
The specific orbital energy associated with this orbit is −29.6 MJ/kg: the potential energy is −59.2 MJ/kg, and the kinetic energy 29.6 MJ/kg. Compared with the potential energy at the surface, which is −62.6 MJ/kg., the extra potential energy is 3.4 MJ/kg, and the total extra energy is 33.0 MJ/kg.
For a given semi-major axis the specific orbital energy is independent of the eccentricity. Using the virial theorem to find: the time-average of the specific potential energy is equal to −2ε the time-average of r −1 is a −1; the time-average of the specific kinetic energy is equal to ε

A kinetic bombardment or a kinetic orbital strike is the hypothetical act of attacking a planetary surface with an inert kinetic projectile from orbit (orbital bombardment), where the destructive power comes from the kinetic energy of the projectile impacting at very high speeds.
the kinetic energy of the system is equal to the absolute value of the total energy; the potential energy of the system is equal to twice the total energy; The escape velocity from any distance is √ 2 times the speed in a circular orbit at that distance: the kinetic energy is twice as much, hence the total energy is zero.
