ClassicalOrientation#

class ansys.stk.core.stkobjects.ClassicalOrientation#

Orbit orientation in the Classical (Keplerian) system.

Overview#

argument_of_periapsis

Get or set the angle from the ascending node to the eccentricity vector (lowest point of orbit) measured in the direction of the satellite’s motion and in the orbit plane. Uses Angle Dimension.

ascending_node

Value of Longitude of Ascending Node or Right Ascension of Ascending Node.

ascending_node_type

Select Longitude of Ascending Node or Right Ascension of Ascending Node.

inclination

Get or set the angle between the angular momentum vector (perpendicular to the plane of the orbit) and the inertial Z axis. Uses Angle Dimension.
