Notes: Orbit refers to the type of
orbit the satellite makes over the Earth.
All of these are near-polar,
sun-synchronous. Altitude refers to
the height of the satellite orbit above the
Earth's mean sea level, in kilometers. Inclination
refers to the angle of an orbit compared to
the equatorial plane, in degrees. Eq.Crossing
refers to the time of day a satellite
crosses the equator.
