CXO Viewport

Dynamic Concepts, Inc. is proud to have supported the Chandra X-Ray Observatory (CXO) program by developing CXO Viewport. CXO Viewport is a software application for the Windows operating system that is designed to aid in the visualization of the stars in the field of view of the CXO Aspect Camera Assembly. CXO Viewport was used to aid in the initial attitude determination of the CXO satellite. The image below shows CXO Viewport shortly after the CXO sunshade door was lifted [CXO first starlight, 8/12/99].
