Thank you! It looks very good to me.
Now we wait for longer time span orbit in HORIZONS/JPL

jujuapapa,you learn to read. In my post, I said that the cmod files were deadlocked once created and that the original 3ds files should be kept. There is no import plugin for cmod files in anim8or but only an export plugin.

"vous n'avez rien compris ou c'est vous qui êtes de mauvaise foi"

Right, it was export, here is the box for the import. :wink:

made by myself, @jujuapapa.

Je crois qu'on peut clore ce point. :wink:

Yes , jujuapapa. :smile:

Just one last point: you do not want to share your work with the community? That would be nice. :smile:

#"This is a unique system that could bring the world of the weather into a new era.
#The European Space Agency (ESA) Aeolus Wind Study Satellite was launched Wednesday 22 August 2018
# aboard the Vega rocket from the Kourou base in French Guiana.
# Placed in orbit at an altitude of 320 kilometers, Aeolus will fill this gap and turn 24 hours a day
#and seven days a week around the Earth. He will measure the wind speed with his powerful laser
#Aladin, the fruit of sixteen years of research, a lidar able to identify the particles transported

Gironde, a beautiful companion with a beautiful mythological name!
What operational work with the model!
Congratulations!

Attention, Croc, this is not the true model because it does not exist to my knowledge. :fie:

This is a generic satellite that I found on Motherlode. On the other hand, the orbital data come from Norad :smile:

Attention, Croc, this is not the true model because it does not exist to my knowledge.

I will try to make the model of Aeolus... it seems it's not so hard... :smile:

Time span now is to 2025-Aug-31 09:20 soo can You update orbit?

gironde · Post #598by **gironde** » 25.08.2018, 08:40

here change psp.xyzv by psp2025.xyzv

Code: Select all

"Parker Solar Probe" "Sol"
{
   Class    "spacecraft"
   Mesh "psp.cmod"
   Orientation   [ 180 0 1 0 ]
   Radius   0.0015
   Beginning   "2018 08 12  08:16:24"   # 2018 Aug 12 08:16:24.0000 TDB
   Ending   "2025 08 31  08:16:24"      # 2025 08 31 08:16:24.0000 TDB -- end of xyz file

   SampledTrajectory
   {
      Source   "psp2025.xyzv"
      DoublePrecision   true
      Interpolation   "cubic"
...

change the name of source in the line Source
