What Does SIA Stand For?
SIA stands for Solar Inertial Attitude
SIA, or Solar Inertial Attitude, refers to the orientation and positioning of a spacecraft or satellite in relation to the Sun's position. It plays a crucial role in optimizing solar panel alignment for energy efficiency, ensuring accurate navigation and stability during solar-based operations. By maintaining a precise attitude relative to the solar vector, SIA enhances mission performance and longevity for space assets.
