MAJ_SAT_DISK_SCAN
MAJ Satellite Disk Distant Observation
Observation of a distant satellite dayside or nightside surface. Satellite offset required for pointing then disk coverage is achieved using the internal pointing mirror scanning in the Y (N-S) direction.
Pointing: NADIR-P with possible offset around Y, YS, MAJIS scan (‘Nadir scan’).
Satellite orientation: MAJIS slit perpendicular to the ground-track
Duration: 30min

1 or 2 observations from 20000 to 80000 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)
