The Keplerian Elements components are:
Component | Description |
---|---|
Altitude of Apoapsis | Altitude at apoapsis of the conic orbit |
Altitude of Periapsis | Altitude at periapsis of the conic orbit |
Argument of Latitude | Sum of argument of periapsis and true anomaly |
Argument of Periapsis | Angular distance from the ascending node to periapsis |
Eccentric Anomaly | Eccentric Anomaly of conic orbit |
Eccentricity | Eccentricity of the conic orbit |
Inclination | Inclination of the plane of the orbit |
Longitude of Ascending Node | Longitude of Ascending Node |
MeanAnomaly | Mean anomaly of the orbiting object |
Mean Motion | Mean Motion (revs/sec) of conic orbit |
Orbit Period | Period of the conic orbit |
RAAN | Right Ascension of the Ascending Node of the plane of the orbit |
Radius of Apoapsis | Radius at apoapsis of the conic orbit |
Radius of Periapsis | Radius at periapsis of the conic orbit |
Semimajor Axis | Half the major axis of the conic orbit |
Time Past Asc Node | Time past the ascending node of the conic orbit |
Time Past Periapsis | Time past the periapsis of the conic orbit |
True Anomaly | Angular distance between the orbiting object and periapsis |
The attributes for each component have the same names and value selections that appear in the Astrogator graphical user interface.
