Hayabusa / Itakowa add-on

Post #1by Are » 09.10.2005, 10:21

I`ve just made this add-on. It`s based on Stardust model and XYZ files
witch i`ve obtained from NASAs Horizons server. The interval between
samples is set for 1 day. Right now the distance between asteroid and
spacecraft is ~7000 km witch is much too much.

Can somebody tell me why is that? The 1 day interval shouldn`t generate
so big mistake.

It is not yet ready to be uploaded to Motherlorde.

PS Sorry for my english ;-)

Are you using Horizons data for the positions of both the spacecraft and the asteroid?

Yes I am. I used the mail from Seldens website to ask for data.
