Orbis.Elements (Orbis v0.7.0)

Canonical representation of satellite orbital elements.

A pure data struct — knows nothing about serialization formats. Populated by format-specific parsers (Orbis.Format.TLE, Orbis.Format.OMM) and serialized by the same modules.

All values are in standard astrodynamic units:

Angles: degrees
Mean motion: revolutions/day
Mean motion derivatives: rev/day², rev/day³
BSTAR drag: 1/earth-radii
Epoch: UTC DateTime
