v21 v22 105 105 Observation Mode to avoid star-sensor blinding by the Earth 106 106 107 108 109 107 Finally, the ACNS functions support automatic “image paving” for the Sun-Imaging instrument (SWAP) 108 in order to increase its actual field of view. PROBA 2, as PROBA 1, has been fitted with a highaccuracy 109 double head star tracker, with GPS receiversand with a set of reaction wheels for the nominal ACNS 110 110 operation. This set of sensors and actuators is complemented with the magnetotorquers and 3-axis 111 111 magnetometers. As explained above, PROBA 2 carries as well an additional star tracker, an additional GPS, an … … 178 178 The PROBA 2 operational modes for the ACNS are as follows: 179 179 * The Bdot mode (safe mode): uses the Earth’s magnetic field to reduce angular rates after separation and also 180 180 as a safe mode during the mission. It ensures that the solar arrays on the deployed panels remain roughly pointed towards the Sun. 181 181 * The magnetic mode (experimental): uses only the magnetic field to point the desired payload toward a desired target. 182 182 * The inertial mode controls the spacecraft attitude with respect to the inertial frame. … … 299 299 300 300 301 301 Processing (SWAP) 302 302 SWAP is an extreme ultraviolet (EUV) telescope that will provide images of the solar corona at a temperature 303 303 of roughly 1 million degrees. The instrument is entirely developed and tested in Belgium under the supervision
