orbital decay

基本解釋

Any instability or orbital decay can be corrected with thrusters and an onboard engine.
任何的不穩(wěn)定和軌道衰變都能通過推進(jìn)器和機(jī)載發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)修正。
Eventually, under the influence of orbital decay, it began to strew its remains across the Earth's surface.
最后，根據(jù)軌道衰減的影響，它開始播在地球表面的遺體。

The concept of the method is clear. The assumption and the processing are in accord with the resolving range of the observed orbital decay rate.
本方法概念清楚，近似假設(shè)和處理與實(shí)測(cè)規(guī)道衰變率的分辨率范圍一致。

Dr Christy admits that orbital decay has an important effect on the data.

Over time, however, satellites gradually lose altitude because of the drag exerted on them by the atmosphere (a phenomenon known as orbital decay).
