The IKAROS 11/05
Sun Distance: 0.77AU Earth Distance: 33318160km (0.22AU), RA=-146.5deg, Dec=-15.3deg Venus Distance: 0.06AU (8975880km) Attitude: Spin Rate=1.7rpm, Sun Angle=16.4deg Blog entries are becoming sparser and apparently there are fewer communications periods as JAXA increasingly focuses on the Akatsuki Venus mission. |
