BuildMAP:

Path: SC/Demos/CAD

% Build a model of the Microwave Anisotropy Probe. 
 The data is taken from web pictures so colors and dimensions are limited in
 accuracy. The position of the spacecraft relative to the moon
 and earth is fictional. This script makes use of the many
 CAD objects that BuildCADModel can use, including the reaction wheel
 object.

 The thruster locations are based on our own design and are not the
 same ones that MAP actually uses. We used our optimal thruster
 distribution law to pick a minimal set of thrusters.

 After the model is finished, it is displayed with DrawSCPlugIn. We show how to
 display the plumes individually and then together using the displayPlume field
 of the thruster deviceInfo.

 Since version 2.
