Tundra orbit

  • ... that satellites in a Tundra orbit appear to move in a figure-eight? The ground track of a satellite in a Tundra orbit is a closed figure-eight with a smaller loop over either the northern or southern hemisphere. - Spacecraft systems engineering book

Improved to Good Article status by Spacepine (talk). Self-nominated at 14:35, 9 June 2019 (UTC).

  • Lua error: expandTemplate: template "y" does not exist.
No QPQ neccesary, this is my second DYK nomination and would prefer to watch and learn a bit more before reviewing others.
Also, it may be worth holding this one to go with a bunch of space themed DYKs in July. Template:Ping? --Spacepine (talk) 11:29, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
I will make sure that happens once Template:U gives the green tick. --- Coffeeandcrumbs 11:42, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
