Flux intensity of the sporadic meteoroid directionality relative to local spacecraft coordinates moving in 400 km circular orbit

Summary

edit
Description
English: The sporadic meteoroid environment in LEO at an altitude of 400 km. The plot is relative to the local spacecraft frame and motion, showing flux intensity as a function of local azimuth and elevation. The Earth shields one side of any spacecraft from a large portion of the meteoroids at this altitude. The shadow has a spherical shape due to the aberration effects of spacecraft motion.
