Satellite: Attitude Segment Euler Angles

The attitude of the vehicle expressed using Euler angles. Additionally, provides information on the attitude segment being used at the given time. Euler angles use a sequence of three rotations starting from a reference coordinate frame. The rotations are performed in succession: each rotation is relative to the frame resulting from any previous rotations. The sequence of three rotations is indicated by a integer sequence where the X axis is 1, Y axis is 2, and Z axis is 3. For example, a 313 sequence uses X, then the new Z, and then finally the newest X axis.

Type: Time-varying data. Intended to be used only with elements from this same data provider.
