Compute the six classical orbital elements of the ISS given the following state
vector. ALSO compute semimajor axis, eccentricity and then perigee and
apogee in
nautical miles.
Use radius_Earth = 6378 km µ_Earth = 398600 km3/s2. 1 nm = 1.852
kilometers
Position vector in ECI J2000
X = -5961.56860 Y = -680.80630 kilometer Z = -3163.80445
Velocity vector
vx = 3.123938734 vy = -5.062859855 vz = -4.822703726 km/sec
