- Rewrote orbital_mechanics.cpp with complete velocity component handling - Added proper parabolic case in velocity section using semi_latus_rectum - Parabolic velocity: vx = -sqrt(μ/p)*sin(ν), vy = sqrt(μ/p)*(1+cos(ν)) - Updated parabolic_comet.toml to use semi_latus_rectum = 2.992e11 (p=2 AU) - With true_anomaly = 0.0, comet at perihelion (r = 1 AU, v = 42.13 km/s) Test Results: - 31 passed / 1 failed (up from 29/3) - Parabolic orbit tests: All 3 assertions pass ✓ - Position and velocity mathematically correct for parabolic orbits - Total energy approximately zero (FP precision: ~200 J/kg) Note: test_invalid_parent_assignment still fails - pre-existing issue unrelated to parabolic implementation.main
