The illumination condition of an artificial earth satellite
is investigated in relation to the geographic location of the
sub- satellite point. A stochastic problem is formulated by
postulating a "random" satellite, and the solution to this
problem is indicated analytically. A statistical solution is
obtained from a digital computer simulation program, together
with a sensitivity analysis of parametric variations.
