Star#

class ansys.stk.core.stkobjects.Star#

Bases: ISTKObject, ILifetimeInformation

Class defining the Star object.

Overview#

Properties

`access_constraints`	Get the constraints imposed on the star.
`chain_analysis_options`	Get the star’s chain analysis options.
`epoch`	Epoch of the star position information as a Julian epoch (yyyy.yy). The Julian epoch is related to the Julian date by the expression JD = 2451545.0 + (yyyy.yy - 2000.0) x 365.25, where 2451545.0 (TT) represents the standard J2000 epoch.
`graphics`	Get the star’s 2D Graphics properties.
`graphics_3d`	Get the star’s 3D Graphics properties.
`location_declination`	The star’s declination: the angle from the inertial equator measured toward the inertial positive Z-axis. Uses Angle Dimension.
`location_right_ascension`	The star’s right ascension: the angle in the equatorial plane measured in a right-handed sense about the inertial Z-axis from the inertial X-axis. Uses Angle Dimension.
`magnitude`	Magnitude, the visual brightness of the star. Dimensionless.
`parallax`	Annual parallax: motion of a star due to changes in the Earth’s position relative to the solar system barycenter. Uses Angle Dimension.
`proper_motion_declination`	Motion of the star relative to the solar system barycenter expressed in arc seconds per year. Here, declination refers to motion from the inertial equator measured towards the inertial positive Z-axis. Uses AngleRate Dimension.
`proper_motion_right_ascension`	Motion of star relative to solar system barycenter expressed in arc seconds per year. Here, right ascension refers to motion in equatorial plane measured in a right-handed sense about the inertial Z-axis from inertial X-axis. Uses AngleRate Dimension.
`radial_velocity`	The star’s radial velocity relative to the solar system barycenter. Uses Rate dimension.
`reference_frame`	Return a reference frame.
