I own starry night backyard esd, and it has satellite's. The only thing wrong with it and the starry night pro was the satellite positions were off. That's because they didn't use the norad orbital model for satellite tracking. Version 4 will use the norad model, so satellite postions should be much better. I tested my starry night for satellite transits and it failed. For example I found out where to go to see the iss go across the centre of the moon's disk, I then using the location info, and same orbital elements in starry night. Well in starry night, the satellite never even touched the moon, and pass by the moon at a different time. But the problem should go away in version 4 of starry night.
