% Compute transfer start times for a round trip between orbits.
Type OrbitRoundTripTransferTimes for a demo.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Form:
[t1,t2,t3,t4] = OrbitRoundTripTransferTimes( pA, pB, dep, ret, N )
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
Inputs
------

.n Orbit rate (rad/s)
dep (.) Departure data structure
.dT
.dTheta
ret (.) Return data structure
.dT
.dTheta
N (1,1) Number of times to compute
-------
Outputs
-------
t1 (1,N) Outbound departure times (sec)
t2 (1,N) Outbound arrival times
t3 (1,N) Return departure times
