Satellites in low Earth orbits require frequent adjustments to maintain their trajectories.

Hohmann transfer orbits are the most fuel-efficient trajectories for transferring spacecraft between coplanar circular orbits around a central body.

Researchers observed that certain initial conditions led to chaotic behavior after just a few P/2 orbits.

Many Earth observation satellites are placed in sun-synchronous orbits to ensure consistent lighting for imaging.

Engineers plan to place several probes into near-rectilinear halo orbits to study lunar geology.

The surgeon carefully examined the orbitales to assess damage around the eye socket.

The archaeologist carefully examined the skull fragments, noting the unusual shape of the orbitae.

During the dissection, the students identified the orbitalis as the muscle responsible for protrusion of the eyeball.

The surgeon explained that the medieval term orbita referred to the eye socket, not the planetary orbit.
