Time | DateFormat | Real Number | Time. |
Temperature | Temperature | Real Number | Vehicle temperature, computed assuming thermal equilibrium. Thus, the temperature is an instantaneous steady-state measure that ignores any thermal transients. |
Solar Flux | PowerFluxDensity | Real Number | The solar flux at the location of the vehicle, a measure of the energy impinging the spacecraft from the Sun. The reported value does not consider any eclipsing. |
Solar Intensity | Percent | Real Number | The portion of the solar disk not currently occulted. |
