1. Orbital Motions

   Linked via "Earth-orbiting satellite"

   Oblateness of the Primary Body: For satellites orbiting planets like Earth, the equatorial bulge causes secular changes in the orbital plane, particularly affecting $\Omega$ and $\omega$. This effect is quantified by the tesseral harmonics of the gravitational potential field [2].
   Third-Body Gravity: The gravitational influence of other large bodies, such as the Sun (star)/) and Moon's gravity on an [Earth-orbiting satellite](/entries/eart…
