Orbital Mechanics-Early Space
Exploration
 Nicolaus Copernicus (1473-1543)
 Placed the sun in middle of solar system
 Showed that the Earth rotates on axis
 Johannes Kepler (1571-1630)
 Discovered that mars orbit wasn’t circular
 Said that the planets orbit around the sun
Kepler’s
st
1
Laws
 1st-The orbits of the planets are ellipses with the Sun at
one focus

Kepler’s
nd
2
Law
 The line joining a planet to the Sun sweeps out equal
area in equal times. Planet closer to the sun, faster
travel.
Kepler’s
rd
3
Law
 The square of the orbital period is directly
proportional to the cube of the average distance
between the Sun and the planet. This means that the
further the planet is from the Sun, the longer it takes
to go around.
Cool stuff I learned
 I learned that EarthKam camera is a simple digital
camera.
