    Cool! Good luck with the events.
    
    Note: if your prediction shows a transit by Soyuz-TM-32/Progress M1-6
    but NOT by ISS, then you have different elsets for things that are
    actually docked together. In which case one elset is wrong, and we must
    wonder which is correct. I usually go by the elset of the biggest
    component, ISS.
    
    (This used to happen with Mir: Mir and the KVANTs often had different
    elsets. Predictions of MIR passes were correct, predictions of KVANT
    passes were wrong.)
    
    Why can't OIG keep track of this? It would seem a simple analyst
    operation: If ISS is docked to Soyuz-TM-32/Progress M1-6, then force
    elsets to be the same.)
