Tries to calculate the radius of periapsis of the orbit.

Namespace:  AGI.Foundation.Coordinates
Assembly:  AGI.Foundation.Core (in AGI.Foundation.Core.dll) Version: 24.1.418.0 (24.1.418.0)
Syntax
public static bool TryComputeRadiusOfPeriapsis(
	double semilatusRectum,
	double eccentricity,
	out double radiusOfPeriapsis
)

Parameters

semilatusRectum
Type: SystemDouble
The semilatus rectum of the orbit (distance).
eccentricity
Type: SystemDouble
The eccentricity of the orbit.
radiusOfPeriapsis
Type: SystemDouble
On return, the radius of periapsis of the orbit.

Return Value
