ECI2OrbitPlane:

Path: Orbit/OrbitCoord

% This function takes a position vector and orbit normal vector in ECI 
   and returns the rotation matrix that rotates from the ECI frame to the
   orbital plane. In the orbital plane, the y vector is aligned with r,
   the z vector is aligned with n, and x completes the right-hand system.
