Validate Hohmann 3D maneuver #18

Closed jorgepiloto closed 3 years ago

jorgepiloto commented 3 years ago

This pull request will validate poliastro's 3D Hohmann maneuvers. It includes an Orekit-based validation test but also a GMAT2020a script.

The initial orbit is a non-equatorial one, as it has around 23deg inclination. Furthermore, it does not start at perigee, so poliastro's internal propagation when applying Hohmann is also checked in here.

I still need to clean the "report" section in the GMAT script file so the output results are properly formatted.
