Notes. Column 1 gives the name of the satellite, Col. 2 the angle between the predicted orbital pole and the VPOS normal, Col. 3 the angle between the median measured orbital pole and the VPOS normal, Col. 4 the fraction of Monte Carlo realizations that have an orbital pole aligned with the VPOS to within the 10% circles, Col. 5 the probability of falsely finding an intrinsically perfectly aligned orbital pole outside of this area given the measurement uncertainties, and Col. 6 the probability of finding an orbital pole at least as far inclined from the VPOS as the median measured orbital pole.

Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.

Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.

Initial download of the metrics may take a while.
