DVGeoTrx:

Path: Orbit/OrbitManeuver

% Delta-V needed to control the longitudinal acceleration in geo. 
   Computes the delta-v needed per year to control the longitudinal
   acceleration due to the Earth triaxial gravitational harmonics in
   geosynchronous orbit. 

   The time between maneuvers will be infinite at the stable points.

   If the gravitational parameters are not entered it will load 
   the GEM-T1 model.

   Type DVGeoTrx for a demo.

   Since version 1.
