            A name is only returned for customer-provider ephemerides that have a name associated.

          • source (string) –

            The EphemerisSource that generated a given ephemeris.

        • groundStations (list) –

          • (string) –

        • noradSatelliteID (integer) –

          NORAD satellite ID number.

        • satelliteArn (string) –
