JB2006 model
Hi,
I was playing around today with Orekit 7 (the version in maven CR). In
particular, with propagations down to the surface of the Earth. Using no
atmosphere model seems to works fine. Using a simple exponential model
also works ok. When I try to use DTM, I get an exception explaining that
the model is not applicable under 120km (which is the expected behaviour
since the model is not defined for lower altitudes).
The problem comes with JB model. When I propagate down to the surface, I start getting strange results at around 90km, which eventually make the integrator crash with a very misleading exception message. Is the JB model applicable for those altitudes? If it is not, then I think an exception similar to the one of DTM should be thrown. That would make the exception simpler to trace.
Keep up the good work!
