Two satellites are launched at a distance $R$ from a planet of negligible radius. Both satellites are launched in the tangential direction. The first satellite launches correctly at a speed $v_0$ and enters a circular orbit. The second satellite, however, is launched at a speed $\frac {1}{2}v_0$ . What is the minimum distance between the second satellite and the planet over the course of its orbit?
