41 Summary Derivation of the acceleration approach based on rotations creating the chance of using star cameras instead of GPS (Free) choice of the moving frame allows for optimisation Determination of and allows for a second (observed) component. Explanation of the low East-West sensitivity Necessity for GPS observations (determination of the frame) Open questions: Can be determined by the star camera (accuracy)? Is it possible to find a frame which also fulfils:?
