Zeusbeer. — @egg I would rather do the GEO, where I'd explain how the orbit shifts up and down and the 2 stable points where sats like to drift to. I really despise doing molniya.
<discord->
Zeusbeer. — Can you link me a source that explain how the egginess of Earth makes the satellites drift? I can't really find anything good
<discord->
Damien. — Yeah it'll oscillate back and forth
<discord->
Zeusbeer. — I guess thats what the omega sign is suggesting too
<discord->
Zeusbeer. — interesting
<discord->
Zeusbeer. — It also makes sense, in some way
<discord->
Zeusbeer. — points U being like an upside down unstable pyramid
<discord->
Zeusbeer. — and the eggines would be caused by the rotation of earth
<discord->
Zeusbeer. — Very nice source Damien, thanks

Damien. — No probs. I'll link the document if I find it. That's just a screenshot I found during a search in this channel

Damien. — There's more to it

shangl. — For TLI, any suggestion on the parking orbit, what's the benefit of polar vs 28.6 inclination with LAN match?
<discord->
Stonesmile. — Going into a lower inclination is cheaper
<discord->
shangl. — Then why luna use a very high inclination, is there any benefit?
<discord->
Stonesmile. — When you are that far north, the benefit of going east vs north gets smaller, while calculating the trajectory for going north might be easier

Damien. — you can't launch directly into an orbit with an inclination lower than your latitude
<discord->
Damien. — so they just direct ascent slingshotted it over the north pole
