mofh: yes because we happen to be looking at an orbit where ω is 90 degrees

mofh: i'm wondering whether to bother about that whole uncertainty of measurement thing at all in my orbit analyser
<egg|zzz|egg>
basically the only thing for which it's vaguely relevant is "how many sigdec to show", and the actual useful intervals (for stationkeeping) are the variabilities of ω, or λ and τ at the equator, etc.
<egg|zzz|egg>
the uncertainty on the mean value of ω' doesn't ultimately seem very interesting
<egg|zzz|egg>
or Ω′

<mofh>
egg|zzz|egg: actually yeah, the variabilities are interesting (tho I suspect the uncertainty on the mean value of Ω′ specifically *might* be useful)
<mofh>
like i'd need to think about this a bit
<egg|zzz|egg>
mofh: well, the variabilities are interesting *on the things that you directly want to control*
<egg|zzz|egg>
you don't care about Ω′ *directly*
<egg|zzz|egg>
you care about the variability of λ wrt the nominal phasing, or of τ wrt the nominal mean solar time of ascending node in a heliosynch orbit
<mofh>
Hrm. I'm not sure that Ω′ is--wait, by Ω′ you mean the derivative of Ω? In that case yeah I agree.

mofh: λ is longitude (at the node), τ is the mean (local) solar time (at the node), Ω is the right ascension of the ascending node
<egg|zzz|egg>
(longitude as in surface longitude, not RA)
