The Orekit jar does not execute by itself. It is a library intended to  
build applications on top of it, it's not an application.

There are some example applications available in the src/tutorials  
folders you can look at. There are simple programs that simply either  
write output to the console or read/write test files. There are not  
graphical interface here.

Other applications that have been done are available in the Orekit  
forge. There is an orbit determination program (here a gain with  
simple input/output) which was contributed to Orekit by Telespazio and  
is in the orekit-labs part of the forge  
<https://www.orekit.org/forge/projects/orbit-determination-telespazio-s-contribution>. There is also an android application, the pre-built .apk files corresponding to the 2011 version are available in the files section of the SOCIS-2011 projet on the forge <https://www.orekit.org/forge/projects/socis-2011/files>. The updates done in 2012 as a second SOCIS project are not pre-packaged but the source code is available on the git repository (on-line browsing at <https://www.orekit.org/forge/projects/socis-2011/repository> and source retrieval using "git clone  
http://www.orekit.org/git/socis-2011";).


hope this helps
Luc
