The on-orbit assembly of the International Space Station (ISS) began in 1998 and continues today. The ISS has an apogee altitude above the Earth’s surface of 341.9 km and a perigee altitude of 331.0 km above the Earth’s surface. Determine its maximum and minimum speeds in orbit, its orbital eccentricity, and its orbital period. Research its actual orbital period and compare it with your calculated value.
