Advanced Orbiting Maneuvers

This article will cover some more advanced orbiting maneuvers. The bi-elliptical transfer orbit can be more efficient (but slower) than the Hohmann transfer orbit in some cases. The other maneuvers will allow you to intercept other orbiting bodies, such as satellites or space stations.

Bi-Elliptical Transfer Orbits

In progress.

Orbital Plane Alignment

The first step in intercepting another orbiting body is to align your orbital plane with the target's orbital plane.

In progress.

Orbit Synchronization

In progress.
