Im using a code to calculate when a satellite re-enters the atmosphere. I need the code to stop running after the satellites altitude goes below 100km. Is there a function i can use to do this?

Maybe the return function:

if altitude < 100
return
end
It depends on how you’re writing your code. If you’re using a differential equation solver, consider using the ‘event’ option. Otherwise, consider a while loop.
