41. Subsequent perigee-up operation moved its orbit to apogee 32110 km, perigee 460 km of 565 minutes period. 42. "Correlated : Surprising Connections Between Seemingly Unrelated Things " will be published in July 2014, also by Perigee . 43. First, a " super moon " is a loose way to describe a full moon that occurs near perigee . 44. In 2011 the orbit had an eccentricity of 0.33 and perigee ( closest approach to Earth ) of. 45. But at perigee ( the lowest point in the orbit ), Corona endured drag from the Earth's atmosphere. 46. Visibility near apogee can exceed twelve hours of dwell at apogee with a much shorter and faster-moving perigee phase. 47. The time between one perigee and the next is slightly longer than the sidereal month and known as the anomalistic month. 48. Perigee ( closest approach to the Earth ) was 15 January 2007, at a distance of 0.82 AU.49. Following the launch failure, Intelsat commissioned NASA to launch a replacement perigee motor to raise the satellite's orbit. 50. The orbit characteristics : apogee / perigee / inclination 208 km, 271 km, and 51.8? respectively.
