Output Description
| Time | Date/Time UTC YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss |
| Latitude | Latitude of spacecraft ground track (-90.0, +90.0) |
| Longitude | Longitude of spacecraft ground track (-180.0, +180.0) |
| Altitude | Spacecraft altitude (km) |
| Distance | Distance (km) between the spacecraft ground track and the ground site location |
| Azimuth | Azimuth (direction from North observer must face) to the Spacecraft |
| Elevation | Spacecraft's elevation angle above the horizon at rise (0.0), peak, and set (0.0) times |
CPR Silent start/stop times indicate that the CPR is set to non-emitting mode during this time interval.
