A problem of relative motion of orbiting bodies is investigated on the example of the free motion of any body ejected from the orbital station that stays in a circular orbit around the earth. An elementary approach is illustrated by a simulation computer program and supported by a mathematical treatment based on approximate dierential equations of the relative orbital motion. 1. Relative motion of bodies in space orbits—an introductory approach
