POLAR POINTING PLANS

This web page contains plots that were generated when the spin axis was oriented normal to the spin plane, these plots are not generated during periods when the spin axis is oriented along ecliptic normal.

The following plot types and miscellanious items are available.

• PLAN CHECK-is a multi-panel plot showing sun danger, SEPS sun exposure time, and the angle between the bore sight and the modeled magnetic field. (click here for more detailed plot explanation)
  
• MOON CHECK -shows the absolute value of the angle between the moon vector and the boresight. (click here for more detailed plot explanation)
  
• MAGNETIC FOOTPRINTS LISTING -list of magnetic footprints computed for the southern hemisphere pass.
• EXCEPTIONAL SOUTHERN OVAL VIEWING intervals.
• BOOKLET on SEASONAL and DAILY VIEW of the AURORAL OVALS for long term science planning.
