Column Listing

Column	Column Name	Element	Type	Dimension	Description
1	Time	Time	Real Number or Text	Date	Time.
2	Azimuth	Azimuth	Real Number or Text	Angle	The angle measured to the projection of the apparent position vector into the X-Y plane from +X in a right handed sense about +Z. The +X direction has an azimuth of zero and +Y has an azimuth of 90 degrees.
3	Elevation	Elevation	Real Number or Text	Angle	The angle from the X-Y plane to the apparent position vector, measured positive in the -Z direction except for the BodyFixed frame where it is measured positive in the +Z direction. Values range from -90 degrees at the nadir to +90 degrees at the zenith.
4	Range	Range	Real Number	Distance	The magnitude of the apparent position of the Sun from the object.
