Hi all,
The angle at descending after the apogee sun maneuver is 4.182 deg.

I have looked at the orbit 0668 ATS file, IBEX_2024_318_o0668a_v001.scr and I approve.

The constraint violations in IBEX_2024_318_0668_v001.ccvr are from the removal of the ACT_SetSpinPulseProtectEnable Enable commands. The violations are acceptable.

The PL commands in IBEX_2024_318_o0668a_v001.scr match those in the STF, IBEX_2024_318_o0668a_v002.stf.

Ascending and descending command sequences are consistent with each other, 15 Re ascending, the apogee maneuver time and 15 Re descending as determined from the OEF, IBEX_2024_318_o0668a_v001.oef and as verified with ibex_orbit.

There are 2 star tracker outages this orbit. They result in an apogee sun maneuver

The ground station command sequences are correct and the timing and bit rates match those in the contacts file, IBEX_Orbit668_Contacts.txt for all contacts (3).

Battery Balancing is 90 minutes long, more than 2 hours away from payload descending macros,  and more than 15 minutes away from a maneuver.

The Inertial maneuver at perigee of orbit 0667 left us pointing in safe directions for the orbit 0668 arc A ascending and descending sequences:

The Sun precession maneuver at apogee leaves us pointing in safe directions at the time of the maneuver and for arc B ascending and descending sequences:
