/** Finder for satellite eclipse related events.
 * <p>This class finds eclipse events, i.e. satellite within umbra (total
 * eclipse) or penumbra (partial eclipse).</p>
 * <p>The occulted body is given through a {@link PVCoordinatesProvider} and its radius in meters. It is modeled as a sphere.
 * </p>
 * <p>Since v10.0 the occulting body is a {@link OneAxisEllipsoid}, before it was modeled as a  sphere.
 * <br>It was changed to precisely model Solar eclipses by the Earth, especially for Low Earth Orbits.
 * <br>If you want eclipses by a spherical occulting body, set its flattening to 0. when defining its OneAxisEllipsoid model..
 * </p>
 * <p>The {@link #withUmbra} or {@link #withPenumbra} methods will tell you if the event is triggered when complete umbra/lighting
 * is achieved or when entering/living the penumbra zone.
 * <br>The default behavior is detecting complete umbra/lighting events.
 * <br>If you want to have both, you'll need to set up two distinct detectors.
 * </p>
 * <p>The default implementation behavior is to {@link Action#CONTINUE continue}
 * propagation when entering the eclipse and to {@link Action#STOP stop} propagation
 * when exiting the eclipse.
 * <br>This can be changed by calling {@link #withHandler(EventHandler)} after construction.
