NASA - Rendezvous For Two
When the space shuttle launches from NASA Kennedy Space Center, it must launch within a certain time frame (called a launch window) in order to successfully dock with the ISS. Launch windows are calculated so that the space shuttle will reach an orbit that is slightly lower than the ISS, but in t...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/nasa--rendezvous-for-two
