| 11. | Orbital decay occurred on July 1, 2014.
|
| 12. | Spacecraft experience orbital decay due to drag.
|
| 13. | A primary use of this model is to aid predictions of satellite orbital decay due to atmospheric drag.
|
| 14. | Space stations typically require a regular altitude boost to counteract orbital decay ( see also orbital station-keeping ).
|
| 15. | Orbital decay can occur due to tidal forces for objects below the synchronous orbit for the body they're orbiting.
|
| 16. | Some satellites with long conductive tethers can also experience orbital decay because of electromagnetic drag from the Earth's magnetic field.
|
| 17. | Additionally, the orbital decay is caused not by atmospheric drag, but by solid body tidal forces not considered by Shklovsky.
|
| 18. | The spacecraft carried 10 days of provisions to allow for survival and natural orbital decay in the event the retrorockets failed.
|
| 19. | Even close orbiting planets can become disrupted, potentially leading to orbital decay and an increase in orbital eccentricity and tidal effects.
|
| 20. | One of his many contributions while at NASA was conducting research to understand the dynamics of orbital decay of artificial Earth satellites.
