Description-en: simulates the launching of satellites
This program can be used to train people to spatial mechanics at an
elementary level. You are given the power to launch a satellite, from
outside the atmosphere, around a handful of predefined planets, or around
any special object you may imagine. Input the initial velocity vector of the
satellite, and you will get the simulated trajectory, as well as some
information like the plots of variation of speed. As an extra, you can
compute a movie, which represents the planet seen from the satellite's
point of view during its orbital period.
