NAME: glb_intersect_plane PURPOSE: Computes the intersection of a plane with a GLOBE object. CATEGORY: NV/LIB/GLB CALLING SEQUENCE: int_pts = glb_intersect_plane(gbd, v, n) ARGUMENTS: INPUT: gbd: Array (nt) of any subclass of GLOBE descriptors. v: Array (1,3,nt) giving plane origins in the BODY frame. n: Array (1,3,nt) giving the plane unit normals in the BODY frame. OUTPUT: NONE KEYWORDS: INPUT: NONE OUTPUT: NONE RETURN: Array (np,3,nt) of points in the BODY frame, np is the number of points on the curve of intersection.
