|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Time of Ascen Node | Time of Ascen Node | Real Number or Text | Date | The time when the satellite is at the ascending node (i.e., the Z component of the
position vector increases through zero). The position vector is expressed in the coordinate system specified on the pass break settings of the satellite.
If the orbit is nearly equatorial, the value will not be computed. This behaves differently from the Passes data provider which will use the inertial position if the pass break setting is set to Fixed. |
