Arguments

source


Description:

Provides the position of the calling LookAngleFrame. The body-fixed frame of source defines the base for the calling LookAngleFrame orientation.

 

 

target


Description:

The target Star for which to determine look angle coordinates.

 

 

lookAngle1


Description:

Will be set to the look angle 1 value of the target position in the calling LookAngleFrame's frame.

 

 

lookAngle2


Description:

Will be set to the look angle 2 value of the target position in the calling LookAngleFrame's frame.

 

 

offset


Description:

A 3 dimensional array defining the calling LookAngleFrame's offset from the source Spacecraft's center in the source's body-fixed coordinates.

Required Size:

3
