% Design a propulsion system for a low-earth orbit satellite
 We assume a constant orbit for drag purposes. You can add any number
 of Hohmann transfers and any number of phase changes. You can add other
 maneuvers to this script.

 We assume a blowdown system with helium as the pressurant.
 The momentum calculations assume a fixed center-of-mass offset.
 If one thruster overwhelms the RWA capacity it recommends a 4 thruster
 configuration. In that case you use off-pulsing during maneuvers.
