I am trying to graph ongoing data not just graph when the object hits the Earth. I want to see the object go around the Earth. Currently, my program gives x and y data infinity since it is orbiting around the Earth.

import math

import scipy.constants

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

#import numpy as np

H = 8848 # m

R = 6.3781e6 # m

Rtotal = H + R

g0 = scipy.constants.g

G = scipy.constants.G

M = 5.972e24 # kg

m = 20 # kg

# v0 = 7897

# v0 = 7896.75

v0 = math.sqrt(9.81*(H+R))*math.sqrt(1.1)

x = [0]

y = [Rtotal]

ay = [-g0]

ax = [0]

vx = [v0]

vy = [0]

dt = 0.01

i = 0

while (x[i]**2+y[i]**2 > R**2 ):

vx.append(vx[i]+ax[i]*dt)

vy.append(vy[i]+ay[i]*dt)

x.append(x[i]+vx[i]*dt+0.5*ax[i]*dt**2)

y.append(y[i]+vy[i]*dt+0.5*ay[i]*dt**2)

ax.append(-(G*M/(x[i]**2+y[i]**2))*x[i]/math.sqrt(x[i]**2+y[i]**2))

ay.append(-(G*M/(x[i]**2+y[i]**2))*y[i]/math.sqrt(x[i]**2+y[i]**2))

print(f"X: {x[i]} Y: {y[i]} R: {math.sqrt(x[i]**2+y[i]**2)-R} I: {i}")

if math.sqrt(x[i]**2+y[i]**2)-R <= H:

if x[i] < 0:

print("STOP!!!")

break

i += 1

print(f"PE: {-(G*M*m/math.sqrt(x[i]**2+y[i]**2))} KE: {0.5*m*math.sqrt(vx[1]**2+vy[1]**2)}")

print(f"Excape V: {math.sqrt(g0*Rtotal)}")

circle1=plt.Circle((0,0),R,color='r')

plt.gcf().gca().add_artist(circle1)

plt.plot(x,y)

plt.show()
