Path: AerospaceUtils/Coord
% Finds the altitude and downrange from a target on a planet. Given the current spacecraft location, r, and a target point rT on the surface of the planet, computes the altitude and downrange distance (distance along an arc on surface). Type DownrangeAndAltFromTarget for a demo. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Form: [d,h] = DownrangeAndAltFromTarget( r, rT ) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ Inputs ------ r (3,:) Spacecraft location rT (3,1) Target point ------- Outputs ------- d (1,:) Down range distance h (1,:) Altitude --------------------------------------------------------------------------
