Hi all.

I see the first couple of orbits in range of the UK are in eclipse or passing 
from eclipse to sunlight.

Is the satellite always in its 'low power mode' in eclipse?
Also, when the satellite passes into sunlight, is the transistion to 'normal 
mode' instant or is there a short delay?

This could be  very interesting as we can see the ISS going into sunlight and 
we should be able to hear when Arissat does the same and then measure the time 
difference (Arissat first ISS second hopefully)

Thanks
