================================ How to get equator crossing time ================================ If you want to know the equator crossing time of Chandrayaan-1, you can use the module :mod:`pyana.cy1orb.Cy1Orbit`. The method :meth:`pyana.cy1orb.Cy1Orbit.Cy1Orbit.getDayEqOfOrb()` support this functionality. .. code-block:: py >>> import pyana.cy1orb.Cy1Orbit >>> orb = pyana.cy1orb.Cy1Orbit.Cy1Orbit() >>> t0 = orb.getDayEqOfOrb(1000) (2454862.0829166998, 1299.0599999999999, -1304.9400000000001, 0.56999999999999995) The returned is a tuple, which has Julian day, x, y, and z in the LSE coordinate system in float. From v1.14, new method :meth:`pyana.cy1orb.Cy1Orbit.Cy1Orbit.getDayEqOfOrb2` is prepared. This is the same API except that the first argument is ``datetime.datetime`` instance. .. code-block:: py >>> import pyana.cy1orb.Cy1Orbit >>> orb = pyana.cy1orb.Cy1Orbit.Cy1Orbit() >>> t0 = orb.getDayEqOfOrb2(1000) (datetime.datetime(2009, 1, 30, 13, 59, 24, 2864), 1299.0599999999999, -1304.9400000000001, 0.56999999999999995)
