In which show you how your method for calculating orbits needs to be modified to accommodate Classical gas giants (Jupiter), Super Jupiters, Eccentric Jupiters and Gas Dwarfs. Check out the previous video for more info at:

General orbital equations and ranges:

Semi major axis: 0.04 - 0.05 AU
Eccentricity: 0 - 1 (pref. 0.00x - 0.0x)
Equation of an ellipse: x^2/a^2 + y^2/b^2 = 1
Semi-minor axis: b = a*sqrt(1 - e^2)
Periapsis (closest approach): q = a(1 - e)
Apoapsis (furthest approach): Q = a(1 + e)
Orbital period: P = sqrt(a^3/M)
Orbital velocity: V_o = sqrt(M/R)
Inclination: 0 - 180 deg
Longitude of the ascending node: 0 - 360 deg
Argument of Periapsis: 0 - 360 deg
