Description: Geometrical considerations are presented for analyzing use of the stellar occultation technique on long-duration earth atmosphere monitoring missions. Simulated mission data are presented for three representative orbits. Bright near-IR stars are used as examples of how extensive global longitude-latitude coverage can be obtained by performing occultation measurements on several stars during the course of a 1-year mission. A brief comparison is made with similar missions using the sun as a light source.
