Difference between Orbital decay and STS-32

Orbital decay vs. STS-32

In orbital mechanics, decay is a process that leads to gradual decrease of the distance between two orbiting bodies at their closest approach (the periapsis) over many orbital periods. STS-32 was the 33rd mission of NASA's Space Shuttle program, and the 9th launch of Space Shuttle ''Columbia''.

Similarities between Orbital decay and STS-32

Orbital decay and STS-32 have 2 things in common (in Unionpedia): Low Earth orbit, Satellite.

Low Earth orbit

A low Earth orbit (LEO) is an orbit around Earth with an altitude of or less, and with an orbital period of between about 84 and 127 minutes.
