A short video (about 10 min):

Lots of information, but it also puts a lot in perspective.
I believe this 10 min. film would take a full semester in most high school physics classes.

Fantastic video! Thanks for posting the link.
My dad built satellite systems in his career and worked closely with the orbital mechanics guys. I was always amazed at the sophisticated math involved and how they precisely knew their launch windows a decade in advance. Talk about hard-stop dates for a project!
