Orbits

The Orbits and Operations team is responsible for orbit planning, mission operations, and ground control with the Cayenne HETE-2 ground station. The orbit selected includes an altitude increase, a plane change, and an altitude decrease followed by an uncontrolled re-entry into Earth's atmosphere. STK and MATLAB were used to plan the orbit.

The specific orbit details will be determined once a launch is obtained, based on the launch information.
