Program TrakSat generates predictions from two line elements. Produces an observation report in any one of the Observers identify their reference stars in a simulated binocular or telescope field of view, enter the observed geometry, and the program automatically Reduces observations of satellites relative to the background stars, into their Ted Molczan's ObsReduce, is an MS Windows program for positional observers, that Subject to the availability of data, it can also estimate the predicted visual magnitude. IDSat also lists the direction of travel, angular velocity and estimated prediction accuracy. Ted Molczan's IDSat assists in the identification of observed satellites, by computing and tabulating close appulses of known satellites relative to the observed time and position. AĬomprehensive magnitudes file is packaged with it. It is textīased, reading the input parameters from a formatted file.
To generate predictions which include an estimate of magnitude. Mike McCants' program uses two-line elements Types of elements, and extracting various information from elements. Purposes, such as managing files of elements, converting between different There are also many utilities for non-prediction What follows is a selection of softwareįor various platforms with a short description and a pointer to the package
If you want to set about generating your own predictions for observing then
