Spaceflight is undoubtedly one of the most complex endeavors mankind has begun, yet the basis for our achievements is something we've all started learning since kindergarten: mathematics. Yes, the math is complex, but I've set out to discover how the math we learn in our Penn State courses applies to a spacecraft in orbit around a planetary body. Using Wolfram Mathematica, we can create 3D models of these orbits with real mathematical equations.
