Add J2 Propagator #32

Open samtx opened 2 years ago

samtx commented 2 years ago

Create new Satellite propagator using a general perturbed Kepler propagator. An initial implementation should be based on Vallado's pkepler algorithm. It will be helpful for validating future pass prediction algorithms.

This is a work in progress in the kepler_propagator branch.
