Maneuver equations
Hohmann: transfer ellipse a_t = (r₁+r₂)/2; Δv₁ = √(μ(2/r₁−1/a_t)) − √(μ/r₁), Δv₂ = √(μ/r₂) − √(μ(2/r₂−1/a_t)); time = half the transfer period.
Combined 2nd burn: Δv₂ = √(v_ta² + v₂² − 2·v_ta·v₂·cos Δi) — doing the plane change where velocity is lowest.
Pure plane change: Δv = 2·v·sin(Δi/2)
Phasing: the phasing period is T_p = T·(1 − Δφ/(360·N)); the burn pair enters and exits an ellipse with the same radius at the burn point. The tool warns if the phasing perigee dips into the atmosphere.
