The following plots show the orbits of CXO and XMM in GSM coordinates. The left plot is in X-Y plane, and the right plot is in X-Z plane. If the orbit is in green, the satellite is in the solar wind area, if it is in light blue, the satellite is in magnetosheath, and if it is in yellow, the satellite is in magnetosphere.
The periods of the plotted orbits are +/-1.35 days from the current satellite positions (*), and the orange pentagon (*) mark the positions of one day ago.
