In astrodynamics or celestial mechanics a hyperbolic trajectory is a Kepler orbit with eccentricity greater than 1.
The orbit formula Hyperbolic orbits is,
r = the radial distance of the orbiting body from the mass center of the central body
h = specific angular momentum of the orbiting body
µ = is the standard gravitational parameter
Ɵ = the true anomaly of the orbiting body
e = eccentricity
