This lecture covers the concept of catch up rate between two close circular orbits, explaining the calculations involved in determining the rate of approach. It also discusses the catch up rate between an elliptical orbit and a close circular orbit, highlighting the differences in the calculations for these scenarios. The instructor provides a summary of the catch up rates for both circular and elliptical orbits, emphasizing the key factors affecting the rate of approach.
