Spacecraft.Access Method

Top 

Description

Returns the start time, end time, and duration of a Spacecraft Sensor's view of a Region, another Spacecraft, a GroundStation, a Star, or a celestial object. The Access time can be based on any active Sensors on the calling Spacecraft or a user-specified subset of Sensors.

 

Timing Precision Mode

This page describes functionality in millisecond timing precision mode. Millisecond timing precision mode is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. We recommend that you migrate your Mission Plans to nanosecond timing precision mode.
