🛰️ Orbital Maneuvers — Prograde/Retrograde Burns & Hohmann Transfer (2D)

Interactive 2D orbital-mechanics sandbox: a spacecraft under real inverse-square gravity, prograde/retrograde Δv burns, and one-click Hohmann transfers between LEO, MEO and GEO altitudes.

⚙ Under the hood

A top-down 2D orbital-mechanics sandbox: a spacecraft orbits Earth under real inverse-square gravity, numerically integrated with RK4. Fire prograde or retrograde delta-v burns at any point in the orbit, or trigger a one-click Hohmann transfer to a preset LEO, MEO or GEO altitude and watch the two-burn maneuver execute automatically.
