Abstract

An observation control device is applicable to a detector installed onboard a spacecraft for performing observation. The observation control device includes an orthogonal direction control unit configured to move an observation range in a direction orthogonal to a travel direction of the spacecraft, the observation range being a range observed by the detector, and a travel direction control unit configured to move the observation range in the travel direction of the spacecraft.
