Noun [English]

Forms: rectilinear orbits [plural]
Head templates: {{en-noun}} rectilinear orbit (plural rectilinear orbits)
  1. A theoretical type of orbit which goes in a straight-line, up and down; with 100% orbital eccentricity (eccentricity=1.0); the orbital path passing through the center-of-mass of the primary mass being orbited; having an periapsis at 0, and two apoapsides, as both arms going out from the periastron are equidistant; where the orbital ellipse has zero width semi-minor axis/minor axis, and the path of the ellipse is the same as the major axis. Synonyms: rectilineal orbit Hypernyms: elliptical orbit, orbit Related terms: near-rectilinear halo orbit (alt: NRHO), near-rectilinear orbit (alt: NRO) Coordinate_terms: circular orbit (english: eccentricity=0.0), highly-elliptical orbit, near-circular orbit
