  • Field Summary

    Fields
    Modifier and Type Field Description
    double angle
    Current angle with respect to the rotationAxis in degrees.
    double angularVelocity
    Angular velocity [deg/hour] around the rotation axis.
    double ascendingNode
    The ascending node in degrees, should not be used, as it obviously causes the body to wobble.

    double inclination
    Angle between orbital plane and the ecliptic in degrees.
    double meridianAngle
    The meridian (hour) angle at the epoch J2000.0, in degrees
    double period
    The rotation period in hours.
