Calculates the orbital height without any formatting.
| # | Optional | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | No | Period of the orbit in seconds | |
| 2 | No | Mass of central body in kilograms | |
| 3 | Yes | Radius of central body in meters | 0 |
| f | Yes | Factor in which the altitude should be shown. Available values: None (m), k (km), M (Mm), G (Gm). If the radius was given kilometers it uses the factor k. | None |
| b | Yes | Uses the sidereal rotation period, mass and radius as default from the given body. Can be overwritten. | Not set (makes the first three parameters mandatory) |
| pf | Yes | Multiplies the period with this value. Useful to easily calculate semi-synchronous orbits (pf=1/2 then). | 1 |
