Difference between Epoch (astronomy) and Mean anomaly

Epoch (astronomy) vs. Mean anomaly

In astronomy, an epoch is a moment in time used as a reference point for some time-varying astronomical quantity, such as the celestial coordinates or elliptical orbital elements of a celestial body, because these are subject to perturbations and vary with time. In celestial mechanics, the mean anomaly is an angle used in calculating the position of a body in an elliptical orbit in the classical two-body problem.

Similarities between Epoch (astronomy) and Mean anomaly

Epoch (astronomy) and Mean anomaly have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Apsis, Celestial mechanics, Mean longitude, Orbital elements, Semi-major and semi-minor axes.

Apsis

An apsis (ἁψίς; plural apsides, Greek: ἁψῖδες) is an extreme point in the orbit of an object.

Semi-major and semi-minor axes

In geometry, the major axis of an ellipse is its longest diameter: a line segment that runs through the center and both foci, with ends at the widest points of the perimeter.
