    We seem to  be getting orbital elements for planning our observations. But 
    would it be possible to get an attitude timeline as well? Knowing the planned 
    orientation of the solar sail would help in predicting any possible flares 
    and maybe issue some respective advisories. Could we get the folks at the 
    Planetary Society to tell us about the solar sail orientation?
