  2. Template:Orbital diagram requested - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Orbital_diagram...

    The template takes a single optional parameter—a description of what the image should illustrate. Adds page to Category:Wikipedia requested orbital diagrams . If you are requesting a technical illustration (e.g. a graph), please provide as much reference data as possible.

  3. Orbital elements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_elements

    Orbital elements are the parameters required to uniquely identify a specific orbit. In celestial mechanics these elements are considered in two-body systems using a Kepler orbit . There are many different ways to mathematically describe the same orbit, but certain schemes, each consisting of a set of six parameters, are commonly used in ...

  5. Orbit determination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbit_determination

    The basic orbit determination task is to determine the classical orbital elements or Keplerian elements, ,,,,, from the orbital state vectors [,], of an orbiting body with respect to the reference frame of its central body. The central bodies are the sources of the gravitational forces, like the Sun, Earth, Moon and other planets.

  6. Argument of periapsis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument_of_periapsis

    The argument of periapsis (also called argument of perifocus or argument of pericenter), symbolized as ω , is one of the orbital elements of an orbiting body. Parametrically, ω is the angle from the body's ascending node to its periapsis , measured in the direction of motion.

  7. Orbital state vectors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_state_vectors

    Orbital position vector, orbital velocity vector, other orbital elements. In astrodynamics and celestial dynamics, the orbital state vectors (sometimes state vectors) of an orbit are Cartesian vectors of position and velocity that together with their time () uniquely determine the trajectory of the orbiting body in space.

  8. Celestial mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celestial_mechanics

    Orbital mechanics is a core discipline within space-mission design and control. Celestial mechanics treats more broadly the orbital dynamics of systems under the influence of gravity , including both spacecraft and natural astronomical bodies such as star systems , planets , moons , and comets .
