ssapy_toolkit.Plots.orbit_plot_xy
- ssapy_toolkit.Plots.orbit_plot_xy(r, t=None, title='', figsize=(7, 7), save_path=False, frame='gcrf', show=False, c='black', pad=1)[source]
Plots the trajectory of an orbiting body in different reference frames.
The function generates four subplots: 1. XY plane projection 2. XZ plane projection 3. YZ plane projection 4. 3D representation of the orbit
Parameters:
- rnumpy array or list of numpy arrays
Position vector(s) of the orbiting object(s). If a single numpy array, it should have shape (N, 3) representing [x, y, z] positions. If a list of numpy arrays, each element should have shape (Ni, 3) for multiple trajectories.
- tnumpy array, list, or None, optional
Time array corresponding to r. If r is a list of arrays, t should be a list of corresponding time arrays.
- titlestr, optional
Title of the plot.
- figsizetuple, optional
Figure size in inches. Default is (7, 7).
- save_pathstr or bool, optional
Path to save the figure. If False, the plot is not saved.
- framestr, optional
Reference frame for the plot. Options: - “gcrf” (Geocentric Celestial Reference Frame) - “itrf” (International Terrestrial Reference Frame) - “lunar” (Lunar-centered frame) - “lunar axis” (Moon on x-axis frame)
- showbool, optional
If True, displays the plot.
Returns:
None
