The point in a lunar orbit nearest the surface of the moon is called the perilune, and the point farthest from the surface is called the apolune. The Apollo's orbit had a perilune altitude of 110 km and an apolune altitude of 314 km above the moon's surface. Find the equation of this ellipse if the radius of the moon is 1728 km and the centre of the moon is at one focus
