[OutAttribute] double% semimajorAxis
)
static member TryComputeSemimajorAxis :
radiusOfPeriapsis : float *
eccentricity : float *
semimajorAxis : float byref -> bool
Parameters
- radiusOfPeriapsis
- Type: SystemDouble
The radius of periapsis. - eccentricity
- Type: SystemDouble
The eccentricity of the orbit. - semimajorAxis
- Type: SystemDouble
On return,
the semimajor axis of the orbit.
Return Value
Type:
Boolean if
eccentricity is negative or
radiusOfPeriapsis is negative or zero; otherwise
.
Remarks The result will be given in the same units as radiusOfPeriapsis.
