MAJ_FLYBY_HR
MAJ Satellite High Resolution
High resolution pubshbroom flyby observations of satellite dayside surfaces bracketing closest approach. Satellite offsets around Y (off-track pointing) axis during or prior to observation allow near-nadir pointing of specific regions. Motion compensation or MAJIS scan is achieved using the MAJIS internal pointing mirror depending on the S/C speed and distance. Binning can be applied may be required near C/A.
Pointing: NYS, NADIR or OFF_NADIR after offset around Y (‘motion compensation PB’).
Satellite orientation: MAJIS slit across track, Satellite offsets around Y (off-track pointing) axis possible.
Duration: 20 to 130 sec

A few observations for distance < 4000 km
any rule that is used to schedule the observation: repetition rules, continuous (plasma instruments), one-off, every orbit, every day, etc
TBD
conditions that make the observation not possible (e.g. thruster firing)
