Orbit Calculator

In space, the curved path of an object around a point is called as the orbit of Earth or satellite. The object involved here is considered as a satellite. Earth is a satellite due to its orbit through the sun. This orbit calculator is used to find the flight velocity, orbital radius and period. This scientific calculator is designed to give the critical information used by the communications industry, of a given satellite with relation to the Earth.

Code to add this calci to your website

Just copy and paste the below code to your webpage where you want to display this calculator.

Formula:

R = 6378.14 + h V = √( 398600.5 / R) P = 2π * (R / V) Where, R = Orbital Radius h = Orbital Altitude V = Flight Velocity P = Orbital Period

Usually, the shape of the orbit is ellipse or oval. Planets mostly have a circular orbit and comets will have a different shape.
