I’m curious, have you ever played Kerbal Space Program? Or, are you familiar with orbital mechanics for a different reason? KSP taught me about those terms and familiarized me with the concept.

KSP mostly. I did have an interest in the topic since childhood, but KSP is for me what really made the concepts and terminology stick.
