Patched conic approximation is a method used in astrodynamics and orbital mechanics for modeling the trajectory of an object (like a spacecraft) that is moving through space, especially when it is influenced by the gravitational fields of multiple celestial bodies. The approach is particularly useful for simplifying complex trajectories that involve multiple gravitational interactions, such as a spacecraft traveling between planets.
