The so far uncommented-about title text seems to be (almost What-If-ishly) literal in a completely different way.  Except that I'm pretty sure you'll not stay within sight of the Earth, for ''most'' trajecectories.  But you'd maybe find yourself in a complexly resonant orbit, maybe Cruithne-like.  Just putting that out there. Resident orbital mechanics experts please feel free to evaluate accordingly. [[Special:Contributions/141.101.99.210|141.101.99.210]] 17:05, 15 November 2013 (UTC)
