Orbital Mechanics: LEO 400KM
Orbital mechanics reference data — gravitational parameters, planetary body properties, standard orbit definitions, and mission delta-V budgets. Covers 8 celestial bodies (Earth, Moon, Mars, Venus, Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Sun) and 11 orbit/trajectory types (LEO, MEO, GEO, GTO, Molniya, Hohmann transfers).
| body or orbit | escape velocity km s (km/s) | inclination deg (deg) | mean radius km (km) | orbital period days (days) | orbital velocity km s (km/s) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| LEO 400KM | 10.848 | 51.6 | 6,771 | 1.524 | 7.669 |
