name: Hard‑Science Orbital Mechanics Checklist
|
||
description: Verify spacecraft trajectories, delta‑v budgets, and orbital timings are scientifically plausible.
|
||
items:
|
||
|
||
- "[ ] Gravity assists modeled with correct bodies and dates"
|
||
- "[ ] Delta‑v calculations align with propulsion tech limits"
|
||
- "[ ] Transfer windows and travel times match real ephemeris"
|
||
- "[ ] Orbits obey Kepler’s laws (elliptical periods, periapsis)"
|
||
- "[ ] Communication latency accounted for at given distances"
|
||
- "[ ] Plot accounts for orbital plane changes / inclination costs"
