I'm stuck on the ordeal initialization procedure on the Apollo 8 mission in earth orbit.
I have V16 N44 up on dsky showing
Row 1 = 26585
Row 2 = -28017
I understand that to be orbital apogee and perigee, but I cannot decipher the units!
And then I'm asked to calculate average alt, easy enough, but then how do I set the alt set dial on the ordeal? What units are those in?
Would love the advice of more experienced pilots here. Thanks! :thumbup:
