Spacecraft.CoElevation Property

Top

Description

The initial right ascension (not coelevation) of a spinning Spacecraft's spin axis with respect to the angular momentum frame. NutationAngle and CoElevation define the orientation of the "spin frame" with respect to the "angular momentum frame".

The z-axis of the spin frame is coincident with the spinning Spacecraft's spin axis.

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.
