The orbit's height of the spaceship is 2000 km and the deviation of the camera from the normal to the planet's surface is 25 degrees. The simulated satellite moves very quickly and flies over the planet for 1.5 minute only. It is approximately 60 times faster than the real artificial satellite does it.
