Artifexian | Resonant Dwarf Planet Orbits @Artifexian | Uploaded 9 years ago | Updated 11 hours ago
In which I show you how to construct orbits for Resonant Dwarf/Kuiper Belt objects. Topics discussed in this video include mean motion resonances (1st order and beyond), the kuiper belt; plutinos, twotinos and other trans-Neptunian objects, and finally the classical/Keplerian orbital elements these types of objects.
