Angle Calculator Plot
The SGP4 propagator and a recent NORAD Two-Line Element (TLE) set are
used to generate predicted postions of the GALEX telescope at selected
eclipses during the time period shown on the plot. The angle between
a fixed position on the sky and each of the celestial bodies selected
by the user is computed for an observer centered at each position in
the sampled ephemeris. For detector safety reasons, GALEX cannot be
used to observe a position on the sky when the angle between that
position and one of the celestial bodies is less than some threshold
known as the 'Avoidance Angle'. The values of the 'Avoidance Angle'
for each body are superimposed on the plot as a dashed line.
