The apogee and pedigee can't be the same. Well technically they can but it'd be really hard to do with a spacecraft and pretty much never naturally occurring. But the orbits do get more circular the closer the planet is to the sun and more eleptical the farther out.
If a planet's orbit were hyperbolic, it'd leave the solar system. There likely were planets in hyperbolic orbits early in the solar system's formation, i.e. they got booted out.
Oh my Lord. Thank you SO much for this video! These seemed absolutely inscrutable before but now I get it!
Thanks for making these videos.. You should start making them again! :)
Never paid attention to conic sections in class. Thought it was boring and not important. Now I realize it's importance.
I've also heard parabolic orbits happen when satellites leave the orbit with the exact speed as the escape velocity.
Very helpful and clearly explained and interesting. Thanks!
Great video! Why did you stop at 3 videos?
This are good videos! Keep making them...!
Thanks for the info, very enlightening!
EXCELLENT VIDEO. THANK YOU SO MUCH
Great video! Now I know why conics are useful.
u have a way of teaching keep it up . . . . .
So gravity wells must be cone shaped. Science infographics & animations always led me to believe they're curvier.
but why are the planetary orbits only elliptical only????
Because planets are moving.

Good info!
This video is completely inaccurate!
Antarctica isn't green!
XD
This guy
It was.
like it is very helpful
concise
I remember my class doin this
So many equations are associated with these, I want to die
Here's 2 more:
Vis viva: v= sqrt(GM(2/r - 1/a))
Kepler's law of harmony: T^2 is proportional to semi-major axis^3
Came here for Parabolic orbits (to research more about Neowise)! 😂😂
