Property:Orbital speed
From CreationWiki, the encyclopedia of creation science
Orbital speed refers to the scalar speed of an orbiting body. Usually this is an average speed, because very few orbits are perfectly circular. A spacecraft (crewed or uncrewed) would also be described as having orbital speed, because every object in the solar system is in orbit around something. (The sun is in orbit around the center of the galaxy.)
The recommended units for displaying orbital speed are km/s, km/h, mi/s, mph.
