Title: The Conic Section of a Satellite Orbit One real-life example of a conic section is the orbit of a satellite around a planet. According to NASA, the orbit of a satellite follows an elliptical path, which is a type

Research ONE example of a conic section in real life.
Tell us in your own words about your find. Do not just make this up off the top of your head. The St Louis Arch, for example, is NOT a parabola—it is an inverted catenary.
To get credit for this Discussion, you must cite a source confirming that your example is, indeed, a conic and not some other more exotic curve.
Using a personal example (My eyebrow) will not count unless you can cite a source verifying that eyebrows are parabolic.
