OrbitalElementsTryConvertMeanAnomalyToTimeUntilNextPeriapsis Method |
Tries to convert the mean anomaly to the time of flight until the next periapsis passage in seconds. The value returned is positive and, for closed orbits, periodic.

Parameters
- meanAnomaly
- Type: SystemDouble
The mean anomaly (radians). - radiusOfPeriapsis
- Type: SystemDouble
The radius of periapsis. - eccentricity
- Type: SystemDouble
The eccentricity of the orbit. - gravitationalParameter
- Type: SystemDouble
The gravitational parameter of the central body being orbited. - timeUntilNextPeriapsis
- Type: SystemDouble
On return,
the time until the next periapsis passage.
Return Value
Type:
Boolean if
eccentricity is negative
or
radiusOfPeriapsis or
gravitationalParameter is negative or zero
or if the orbit is open (parabolic or hyperbolic) and
meanAnomaly is positive or zero; otherwise
