Reference Vectors

I just have one quick question:

In 'Reference Vectors' I understand what Body Axes, Sun Direction, and Velocity Vectors are, but what are the Frame Axes?

They are the reference frames used for defining a body's orientation. See http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Celestia/Reference_Frames
