% Plot a 3D orbit around a planet in the ECI or planet fixed frame.
Adds time tags to the trajectory at suitable intervals. Planet must be
match a mat-file on the path. If the .mat file does not exist it will not
draw the planet. For example, for a planet-fixed plot around Mars:
PlotPlanetOrbit( [rECI;vECI], jD, 'Spacecraft', 'Mars' )
For a time-tagged ECI plot around Earth:
PlotPlanetOrbit( [rECI;vECI], jD, 'Spacecraft', 'Earth', true )
For a simple multi-spacecraft ECI plot:
PlotPlanetOrbit( {r1,r2} )
Type PlotPlanetOrbit for a Mars planet-fixed demo.
