+The //Physics// script is designed to provide aid in calculating basic things such as information on planets, or plotting travel times. It's not specifically tied to //Traveller//, but was written with that game in mind. As with my other scripts, it is available on [[https://github.com/samuelpenn/rpg/blob/master/roll20/traveller/physics.js|GitHub]].

+=== Orbits ===

+Another option is to specify an orbit. If a third parameter is specified, then it is the distance to an orbit, which by default is from the centre of the planet. To specify a 7,000km orbit around a 6,400km radius planet you would use:
+<code>
+!physics planet 6400km 5.5 7000km
+</code>
+Alternatively, you can specify an orbit as an altitude by using +<altitude>.
+<code>
+!physics planet 6400km 5.5 +400km
+</code>
+=== Solar Orbits ===
+{{ :traveller:solar-orbit.png?nolink&200|}}
+You can also specify solar orbits, simply by using larger numbers.
+<code>
+!physics planet 1sol 1sol 1au
+!physics planet 2sol 1.5sol 3au
+!physics planet 5j 1.5j 1mkm
