WIP

Issue number and link

Testing plan

Added a new developer Sandcastle demonstrating this feature. It has the following buttons:

  • "Satellite 1" - Displays satellite 2 entity's path relative to satellite 1
  • "Satellite 2" - Displays satellite 1's path relative to satellite 2
  • "Both" - Displays both satellites with a default undefined path.relativeTo property
  • "Earth" - Displays both satellites with a default undefined path.relativeTo, but zoomed out to view their path around the Earth
  • "Satellite 2 - fixed frame path" - Displays satellite 1 with a default undefined path.relativeTo property, and satellite 2 with its path relative to a fixed frame
  • "Satellite 2 - orientation" - Displays satellite 1 with a default undefined path.relativeTo property, and two versions of satellite 2's path
    • One satellite 2 path, in orange, is relative to satellite 1 where satellite 1 does not have an orientation property set
    • The second satellite 2 path, in yellow, is relative to satellite 1 where satellite 1 does have an orientation property set to "velocityReference":"#position"
