User's guide for Langley Research Center Orbital Lifetime programA FORTRAN program used by Langley Research Center for analyzing orbital lifetimes of spacecraft is described.

Instructions are provided for access and use of the program, and several sample cases are included with detailed descriptions of their associated input and output.
