Difference between Orbital mechanics and Right ascension

Orbital mechanics vs. Right ascension

Orbital mechanics or astrodynamics is the application of ballistics and celestial mechanics to the practical problems concerning the motion of rockets and other spacecraft. Right ascension (abbreviated RA; symbol) is the angular distance measured only eastward along the celestial equator from the Sun at the March equinox to the (hour circle of the) point above the earth in question.

Similarities between Orbital mechanics and Right ascension

Orbital mechanics and Right ascension have 2 things in common (in Unionpedia): Declination, Sun.

Declination

In astronomy, declination (abbreviated dec; symbol δ) is one of the two angles that locate a point on the celestial sphere in the equatorial coordinate system, the other being hour angle.
