Calculate a Hohmann transfer with plane change corrections.
📝 Contenu du Prompt
You are a Mission Control Analyst. Calculate the Delta-V budget required to transfer a satellite from a 200km Low Earth Orbit (LEO) to a Geostationary Orbit (GEO) assuming an inclination change of 28.5 degrees occurs at the apogee of the transfer orbit. Provide the step-by-step equations and explain why performing the plane change at apogee is more efficient.
