    You need to know if the satellite is spinning around a steady axis, or
    maintained in an Earth-related (or star-related) attitude.
    To identify a spin axis, you need to know the number of flaring surfaces,
    and at least three flare positions in different parts of the sky for a
    single surface.
    Do you?
    I have succeeded for ETS-6, I had an idea for COMETS, and I may have enough
    data for SPOT-3.
    If you have enough observations, please let me have a copy to test my
    programs.
