&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Nouvelle page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;== What is an orbit ? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An orbit is defined with a &amp;lt;font color=#FF0000&amp;gt;date&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt;, a &amp;lt;font color=#FF0000&amp;gt;frame&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; then &amp;lt;font color=#FF0000&amp;gt;orbital parameters&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt;; in the example below, we will use keplerian parameters ...&lt;br /&gt;
* semi major axis&lt;br /&gt;
* eccentricity&lt;br /&gt;
* inclination&lt;br /&gt;
* perigee argument&lt;br /&gt;
* right ascension of the ascending node&lt;br /&gt;
* anomaly (mean, true, eccentric)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Note that it is mandatory to set the &amp;quot;Mu&amp;quot; value (gravitational constant) for both reasons :&lt;br /&gt;
# to be able to convert keplerian parameters to cartesian ones&lt;br /&gt;
# to propagate this orbit using the keplerian motion (considering only the central term) (for more sophisticated propagations (analytical or numerical ones) see specific tutorials).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Code example:&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; [[CreateKeplerianOrbit_4.5.1|create a Keplerian orbit]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Orbital parameters ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rather than to set directly orbital parameters when creating an orbit (see previous tutorial), it is possible to go through an intermediate object including these orbital parameters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then to create an orbit, we will have to set the &amp;lt;font color=#FF0000&amp;gt;date&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt;, the &amp;lt;font color=#FF0000&amp;gt;frame&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; ... and this object.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Moreover, the advantage of this sublevel is to treat parameters conversions without considering a whole orbit (for example, to convert &amp;lt;font color=#FF0000&amp;gt;keplerian&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; parameters in &amp;lt;font color=#FF0000&amp;gt;cartesian&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; ones, it is not necessary to use a &amp;lt;font color=#FF0000&amp;gt;date&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt; or a &amp;lt;font color=#FF0000&amp;gt;frame&amp;lt;/font&amp;gt;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Code example:&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; [[CreateKeplerianOrbitUsingParameters_4.5.1|create a Keplerian orbit using parameters]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Reentry parameters ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In case of atmospheric reentry trajectories, it could be useful to get specific &amp;quot;reentry parameters&amp;quot; defined in an inertial or even rotating frame. The following code gives some examples ...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Code example:&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; [[Reentryparameters_4.5.1|Reentry parameters]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Orbital parameters conversions ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As explained in the previous tutorial, it is possible to make a lot of conversion between different orbital parameters formats. The following code gives some examples ...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Code example:&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; [[ParametersConversions_4.5.1|orbital parameters conversions]]&lt;br /&gt;
