Re: Pioneer Anomaly

Bravo Planetary Society!
I'm surprised that the anisotropy of heat radiated is so small, especially in the solar-radial directions. With the big dish presumably pointed at Earth most or all of the time, I would expect a lot more of the internally generated heat to be radiated away from the Sun than towards it. Maybe, when the model's fidelity is improved, the difference will be bigger than the present results.
