OK. Planck–Einstein... The problem is when the capsule movesfrom an elliptical orbit to a parabolic orbit. There's no mathematical formula for that. As we can calculate launch, landing but without this conversion, the capsulestays in orbit, we can't bring it back home. Maybe we've been thinking about thisall wrong. How's that?

There's no mathematical formula for that
00:00:15.042 --> 00:00:17.082
As we can calculate launch landing
00:00:17.086 --> 00:00:21.077
but without this conversion the capsule stays in orbit we can't bring it back home
00:00:24.005 --> 00:00:26.047
Maybe we've been thinking about this all wrong
