| Description | Five gravitational constraints were derived for the GEOS 2 orbit (order 13, to 30th degree) whose principal resonant period is 6 days. The constraints explain the sinusoidal variation with argument of perigee of a lumped harmonic found from 41 6-day arcs of optical and laser data. The condition equations, derived from elementary perturbation theory are shown to account for almost all of the resonant information in the tracking data. |
