Orbital Mechanics

 

Who says video games aren’t educational? This low-key endorsement from Randall Munroe at xkcd (who is a former NASA roboticist) will probably do more for the game Kerbal Space Program than all the splashy ads they could buy.  

If you have no clue what orbital mechanics are, another word for the term is astrodynamics, meaning the science of how spacecraft move.
