The orbit would then intersect the atmosphere and burn up.

So one revolution later, the two orbits will intersect again - and you'll be right back where you started.

You are on a collision course; your orbits will intersect in sixty-five minutes!

In all instances, a closed orbit will still intersect the perturbation point.

I think the fact that their orbits intersect every now and again - that's just a co-incidence.

An actual escape requires of course that the orbit not intersect the planet nor its atmosphere, since this would cause the object to crash.

The trick is to figure out from which direction the missile will be coming, when -its orbit intersects yours.

Clearly the orbits do not intersect and we may add the respective generating functions.

Its orbit intersected Earth's orbital path every 50 years.

That is because its eccentric and skewed orbit intersects Neptune's.
