Model for modeling satellite tracking

This Model includes some simple objects to be used in modeling satellite tracking paths as a way for students to put together the two accelerations they should know acceleration due to Gravity GMm/R^2 and centripetal V^2/R. Any orbit path can be approximated by taking a equatorial path and rotating once about the y axis (inclination) and once about the z to make the apogee and perigee work.
