Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS)

This addon adds the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) space telescope in orbit around the Earth. Model ported from this page and edited by me in Blender: https://nasa3d.arc.nasa.gov/detail/tess-jpl Model variations There are three variations of TESS in this addon (see screenshot), with each variation having a different solar panel rotation. The default model is TESS_rotated_panels_90.sss. To use the other two models, create an external .sc file inside addons\catalogs\planets (name it whatever you want) and add the following blocks of code: For solar panels rotated 45 degrees: Structure "TESS / Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite" { Model "spacecraft/TESS/TESS_rotated_panels_45.sss" ParentBody "Earth" TidalLocked true Orbit { RefPlane "Equator" SemiMajorAxis 0. 00160430091 Eccentricity 0. 55 Inclination 37 MeanAnomaly -120 AscendingNode 0 ArgOfPericen 0 } } For solar panels rotated 0 degrees: Structure "TESS / Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite" { Model "spacecraft/TESS/TESS.sss" ParentBody "Earth" TidalLocked true Orbit { RefPlane "Equator" SemiMajorAxis 0. 00160430091 Eccentricity 0. 55 Inclination 37 MeanAnomaly -120 AscendingNode 0 ArgOfPericen 0 } } SpaceEngine will automatically override the .sc file in this addon with your new .sc file. If I ever update this addon, be sure to update your external .sc file again, as SpaceEngine always loads the .sc file with the more recent modification date.
