Path: Orbit/OrbitManeuver
% Lower orbits starting from a hyperbolic orbit
This routine will change orbits. The first is for insertion into the
planetary orbit from a hyperbola. The second and additional to lower
apoapsis. All maneuvers happen at periapsis. All are in-plane maneuvers.
You need at least one orbit. d.maneuver is compute during initialization.
Type OrbitLoweringManeuvers for a demo of lunar insertion.
