- | New abilities include calculating Schwartzschild and Photon Sphere radii, and Synodic Periods of two orbiting objects based on either their distances from the host mass or their periods. | ||

- | The photon sphere result assumes a non-rotating (Schwartzschild) black-hole. There is additional information about photon spheres around rotating black holes in the help file, although you should research what these are to get a more thorough understanding. | ||

- | Synodic periods are important when using low-energy transfers from one orbit to another (which might equate to a transfer from one planet to another), where the timing of the arrival of both the target object and the spacecraft is important. The target object could be another planet, or a specific location in the geostationary orbit, and synodic periods dictate when such transfers can take place. | ||
