+// NOTE: a couple of ideas for performance improvements:
+// - simultaneous computation of sin/cos for SLEEF,
+// - partitioning of the satellite list into simplified
+//   (perigee < 220km) and non-simplified dynamics. This would
+//   allow to get rid of the select() calls in the time propagation
+//   function, as we would then have 2 different functions for the simplified
+//   and non-simplified tprop. Getting rid of the select()s would allow
+//   to avoid unnecessary computations. The issue with this approach
+//   is that we would need to alter the original ordering of the satellites.
+//   Perhaps a similar approach could work for the deep space part too?
