Breakdown

<time>

The current simulation time

<platform>

The name of the platform initiating the maneuver.

ID: <unique id>

The unique identifier for this maneuver.

Type: <maneuver type>

The maneuver type being executed.

Constraint: <maneuver constraint>

The constraint condition on the maneuver.

Duration <time>

The maneuver duration. If the maneuver is impulsive, this value will be zero.

Orbital Elements: The orbital elements of the initial orbit:
SMA: <length>

Semi-major axis (km)

ECC: <double>

Eccentricity

INC: <angle>

Inclination (degrees)

RAAN: <angle>

Right ascension of the ascending node (degrees)

ARGP: <angle>

Argument of periapsis (degrees)

MA: <angle>

Mean anomaly (degrees)

TA: <angle>

True anomaly (degrees)

{ (Circular) | (Equatorial) | (Circular, Equatorial) }

Whether the orbit is circular (eccentricity = 0), equatorial (inclination = 0), or both. If neither, nothing is output.
