Why

[shigeo]

"Within marginal deviation". Isn't this enough ? the orbits are almost identical!

Hi shigeo, I think you will find that your orbit is 180 degrees off.

[shigeo]

how? like...backwards ?

[shigeo]

how can you tell?

[GoSlash27]

^ that.

Been there done that you are not alone my friend. The mistake that everyone makes atleast once

It can be hard to notice at first, but the target orbit circle is traced by dots, moving in the direction that you need to match.

It'd be nice if those were more visible. Maybe have one of the dots actually be an arrow, revolving and pointing the direction you need to go. Y'know, make it a little more obvious.

TBH, I'd like that for every orbit. And arrows for rotational direction, so I can see prograde/retrograde directions at a glance for sorting out insertions.

IMO the dots are visible enough. The wanted inclination is also an indicator.

OP, please find a better topic name next time. Most of the topics in this sub forum are a why-question

Hover the AN/DN nodes and see whether they show close to 0 degree or 180 degree. The latter - you're really going backwards.
