Editing Orbital Mechanics (Kepler's Laws) (section)

== <span style="color: #FFFFFF;">Remembering</span> ==
* '''Orbital Mechanics''' (Astrodynamics) — The "Application" of "Ballistics" and "Celestial Mechanics" to the "Practical Problems" of "Spacecraft Motion."
* '''Orbit''' — A "Repeating Path" an object takes around another object in space due to "Gravity."
* '''Kepler's 1st Law''' — "The Orbit of every planet is an **Ellipse**," with the Sun at one of the two "Foci." (Orbits are not perfect circles).
* '''Kepler's 2nd Law''' — "A planet sweeps out **Equal Areas** in **Equal Times**." (Objects move "Faster" when they are "Closer" to the center).
* '''Kepler's 3rd Law''' — "The Square of the period is proportional to the Cube of the distance." (Farther planets take "Much Longer" to orbit).
* '''Escape Velocity''' — The "Minimum Speed" (~11.2 km/s for Earth) required to "Break Free" from a planet's "Gravity" without "Falling Back."
* '''Perigee / Apogee''' — The "Closest" and "Farthest" points of an orbit around **Earth.** (Perihelion/Aphelion for the Sun).
* '''Inclination''' — The "Angle" of the orbit relative to the planet's "Equator" (e.g. '0 degrees' for Equatorial, '90 degrees' for Polar).
* '''Geostationary Orbit''' (GEO) — An orbit (~35,786 km high) where a satellite "Stays Above" the "Same Spot" on Earth forever.
* '''Hohmann Transfer''' — The "Most Efficient" way to "Move" between two orbits using "Two Engine Burns."
