OrbitalElementsTryConvertParabolicAnomalyToTimeFromPeriapsis Method |
Tries to convert the parabolic anomaly to the time of flight from the corresponding periapsis passage in seconds. The value returned is signed and monotonic even for periodic orbits.

Parameters
- parabolicAnomaly
- Type: SystemDouble
The parabolic 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. - timeFromPeriapsis
- Type: SystemDouble
On return,
the time since the last periapsis passage.
Return Value
Type:
Boolean if
eccentricity is not equal to one (indicating that the orbit is not parabolic)
or
radiusOfPeriapsis or
gravitationalParameter is negative or zero; otherwise
.
