A designated path or track on which vehicles such as trains operate, typically consisting of rails and supporting structures.
The specific route or course that celestial bodies follow as they move through space, often described by predictable elliptical or circular paths.
A metaphorical pathway that represents the progression or direction of events in a process, indicating whether something is proceeding as planned or deviating from expected outcomes.
A structured line along which an object moves under certain physical laws, commonly used in discussions of movement in both astronomical and mechanical contexts.
Example:
その衛星は地球の軌道を10周した。
A path traced out in space that follows a perfectly round shape around a central point, typically under the influence of gravity.
The continuous route that an object in space takes when moving around a celestial body, characterized by maintaining a constant distance from that body.
A specific type of orbital movement where an object orbits another object in a uniform circular path, often seen in planetary or satellite motion.
The motion of an object that revolves in a circle around a focal point, reflecting a balance between gravitational forces and the object’s inertia.
A specific type of orbit where a satellite remains at a constant position relative to the Earth's surface, matching the rotation of the planet.
An orbital path that allows a satellite to circle the Earth at the same rotational speed as the planet, appearing to be stationary from a ground perspective.
The trajectory taken by a satellite that ensures it remains fixed over a particular geographical location due to its synchronization with Earth's axial rotation.
Describing a state of being without a designated or fixed path or route, often used to illustrate a lack of direction or organization in actions or thoughts.
Referring to behavior that deviates significantly from societal norms, indicating a sense of recklessness or wildness in one's actions or lifestyle choices.
Characterizing an individual or situation that lacks a conventional structure or a predictable course, resulting in chaos or randomness in behavior.
Example:
彼は若い頃は実に無軌道だった。
The act of adjusting a planned course or direction in response to new information or circumstances, often used in the context of space navigation or project management.
A strategic modification made to enhance the alignment or effectiveness of a process or plan, typically to achieve desired outcomes.
The process of altering the trajectory of an object or idea to ensure it remains on a successful path or meets its intended goal.
