The knowledge of eclipse region is important from the power subsystem point of view. In this region there will no solar panel in the sunlight so the satellite functionalities have to depend solely on batteries. Also, in this region the sun vector can’t be calculated using the sun sensor. Any output coming on the sun sensor would be noise and we should not calculate sun vector using sun sensor in this region. <br \>
