Velocity induced on the test masses during a simulated close approach between 4179 Toutatis and S/C 2 centered at t = 0 s. The test mass tmij specifies the spacecraft i to which it belongs and the spacecraft j that is linked to it by the laser beam. For the other spacecraft, the velocity induced by the close approach is negligible and is thus not shown.
