The 15 pages that link to Hohmann transfer orbit, each with the reason it gives.

• Orbital mechanicsBroader topic: It is a fuel-efficient baseline for changing a spacecraft's orbital altitude.

• Orbital eccentricityBroader topic: Its transfer ellipse has an eccentricity determined by the two target orbit radii.

• Orbital elementsBroader topic: Its transfer ellipse is described by a distinct set of orbital elements.

• Vis-viva equationRelated: Vis-viva gives the speeds required at both ends of the transfer ellipse.

• PeriapsisRelated: Its transfer ellipse has periapsis at one endpoint orbit.

• Specific orbital energyBroader topic: Its two burns alter specific energy to move between circular orbit sizes.

• OrbitRelated: It shows how orbital geometry can reduce the propellant needed to change orbit.

• Orbital rendezvousRelated: A transfer orbit can change a chaser’s orbital altitude before its final approach.

• Orbital maneuverBroader topic: It is the standard two-burn maneuver for changing orbital altitude efficiently.

• Circular orbitRelated: It connects circular paths while showing why transfer trajectories are usually elliptical.

• True anomalyBroader topic: Its departure and arrival points have specific true anomalies on the transfer ellipse.

• Oberth effectCompared with: Its burns occur at specific orbital locations, but its standard analysis does not depend on the Oberth effect as a separate maneuver.

• Space rendezvousRelated: A transfer orbit can change a chaser's orbital altitude before it matches a target's orbit.

• Orbital energyBroader topic: Its required burns follow from the difference between the initial and final orbital energies.

• Kepler orbitBroader topic: It uses a Kepler ellipse as an idealized spacecraft transfer trajectory.
