Ratings: 4.28 / 5.00




Description

This course will help you understand the nature of orbits and trajectories at a fundamental level.

I focus on the concepts you need to describe and define orbits. I use Earth as an example, but the concepts apply equally well to other bodies, such as Mars or the Sun. My approach is light on math. I also cover key terminology that will help you make sense of this jargon-rich field.

What You Will Learn!

  • Understand the nature of orbits and trajectories
  • Use and understand key industry terminology related to orbits and orbital mechanics

Who Should Attend!

  • Beginner space or rocket scientists
  • Those interested in living or working in space
  • People who would like to develop a broad and more intuitive understanding about how orbits work
