Orbit for Pixxel Satellites

Pixxel satellites operate at a Sun Synchronous Polar Orbit (SSO). This means that the satellites travel over the polar region and are synchronous with the sun, i.e., they remain in the same position relative to the sun. This implies that the satellites revisit the same spot along the orbit at the same local time, daily.
