Property:Orbital eccentricity
From CreationWiki, the encyclopedia of creation science
The eccentricity of any circle, ellipse, parabola, or hyperbola is a dimensionless number that describes the deviation of the path described from a perfect circle.
For a circle, eccentricity e = 0.
For an ellipse, 0 < e < 1.
For a parabola, e = 1.
For a hyperbola, e > 1.
In orbital mechanics, e = (apoapsis - periapsis) / (apoapsis + periapsis)
