... Complete escape from an object is not really possible. The gravitational field is infinite and so some gravitational force will always be felt no matter how far away you can get. This explains why some planets have atmospheres and others do not. Lighter molecules have higher average speeds and a ...

... When considering gravitational forces alone, the unperturbed satellite motion follows the geodesics of the local space-time. For the appropriate metric at the required order, the latter equations contain all the gravitational effects at the corresponding order. Indeed, computing the geodesic equatio ...
