Polar Orbits #57

It is a great tool , but in my opinion it lack's option to select polar orbit as one of parameters.

This is a good idea. To implement this, we would however need some details to work out a user flow in the UI that does not clash with existing features.

What kind of problem is this intended to solve? For example, a low polar orbit satellite will have similar distance calculations to satellites in high orbits. A high polar orbit satellite will have different distance measurements depending on the mean anomaly, and the user needs to be able to control this value intuitively.
