Orbiters A spacecraft or satellite designed to orbit a planet or other solar system body. Ryan McGranaghan 2023.04.16
Orbits The path followed by a body moving in a gravitational field. For bodies moving under the influence of a centrally directed force, without significant perturbation, the shape of the orbit must be one o f the conic section family of curves (circle, ellipse, parabola, or hyperbola).
