Class BodyCenterPointing

java.lang.Object

org.orekit.attitudes.GroundPointing

org.orekit.attitudes.BodyCenterPointing

All Implemented Interfaces:

AttitudeProvider

public class BodyCenterPointing
extends GroundPointing

This class handles body center pointing attitude provider.

This class represents the attitude provider where the satellite z axis is pointing to the body frame center.

The object BodyCenterPointing is guaranteed to be immutable.
