    Function lookAngles

    • Where the Satellite stands in the Observer's sky at one instant: how high above the horizon and in which direction, both in degrees, the elevation negative while it is below.

      Taken from the point beneath the Satellite and its altitude rather than from the Satellite's own vector, which is the road every horizon answer here takes, so In view, the Footprint and these look angles cannot disagree about where the horizon is.

      How high and in which direction is all this answers about the horizon: when a Satellite next crosses it is a Pass, which findPasses works out from a Source, the Ephemeris where one covers the search, rather than from the one Position taken here.
