Hello folks,
Ok, thanks for many replies about gravity. I have two questions for you...
I have a question about orbit with small objects like hammer, golf ball, etc.. In space, can tiny objects (some inches to 3-4 feet diameters) like hammer, ball, etc. orbit each others? Is that possible to try them inside space station? If so, how fast do they orbit each others?
Also, I have another question about speed setting for spacecrafts or planets. How do I set a speed in vector for each object to orbit? If no speed set, it would fall toward other larger object, etc. I was looking for formula through my astrodynamc book but can't find them. Does anyone have any resources about formula for speed settings for orbit, etc?
Thanks!
Tim
