Spacecraft.Apoapsis Property

Top 

Description

Returns an instantaneous osculating estimate of the apoapsis distance from the center of the CentralBody to the Spacecraft, based on the current orbital state. The Spacecraft.Apoapsis property is not based on a force model and is computed directly from the instantaneous Keplerian elements where the instantaneous Keplerian elements are computed from the active state of the Spacecraft.
