Function transfer_inclination_penalty 

Source 
pub fn transfer_inclination_penalty(
    departure: Planet,
    arrival: Planet,
    jd: f64,
    transfer_velocity_km_s: f64,
) -> (Radians, f64)
Expand description

Transfer inclination analysis: given departure and arrival planet positions, compute the required inclination change and associated ΔV penalty.

Returns (inclination_change_rad, dv_penalty_km_s) where:

  • inclination_change_rad: angle between departure and arrival orbital planes
  • dv_penalty_km_s: additional ΔV needed for plane change at given transfer velocity
