>Yes, Satspy is excellent - generates nice starcharts. >I run Mike McCants eccentric file through Element Manager's filters to pick >out the few with Northern hemisphere perigees. With eccen.tle and SkyMap you don't have to pre-process the elset, filtering is built into SkyMap. Just set the F7/F9 MinRange,MaxRange option to 0,3000 or whatever. With a F7/L magnitude limit of 10, eccen.tle currently gives over 30 passes per night for Falcon, Co. Charting is excellent also, but a report file is also available - the brightest are: 0/ 3/ 7 18:48:43 244ø 0ø 18:51:40 168ø 19ø 18:52:10 142ø 17ø 5.2 23835 Delta 2 R/B(2) 0/ 3/ 6 5:48:30 230ø 31ø 5:49:36 219ø 31ø 5:55:17 159ø 12ø 5.2 25175 Comets 0/ 3/ 5 18:29:21 329ø 1ø 18:34:53 57ø 78ø 18:40:24 147ø 3ø 5.3 25684 85118X 0/ 3/ 8 5:18:17 344ø 23ø 5:18:21 349ø 23ø 5:23:21 58ø 2ø 5.5 26060 99047H 0/ 3/ 7 4:34:35 189ø 19ø 4:35:49 162ø 22ø 4:39:42 118ø 13ø 5.7 06797 Intlsat 4-7 Rk 0/ 3/ 7 20:28:28 240ø 0ø 20:32:41 190ø 33ø 20:32:42 190ø 33ø 5.7 23416 DFH-3 1 Rk 0/ 3/ 6 5:23:56 229ø 34ø 5:26:02 208ø 37ø 5:32:41 129ø 0ø 6.0 23742 Galaxy 3R Rk 0/ 3/ 8 4:34:33 167ø 15ø 4:34:33 167ø 15ø 4:38:41 120ø 3ø 6.1 14900 PRC 15 Rk 0/ 3/ 6 20:57:13 222ø 25ø 20:57:13 222ø 25ø 20:59:11 202ø 20ø 6.3 22980 VEP H-2 Rk 0/ 3/ 5 4:04:48 323ø 57ø 4:05:52 242ø 86ø 4:11:15 153ø 20ø 6.5 25800 90110J 0/ 3/ 5 18:36:59 198ø 7ø 18:38:23 184ø 8ø 18:42:17 136ø 2ø 6.7 10722 IntSt 4A F3 Rk 0/ 3/ 5 19:05:42 187ø 0ø 19:10:45 137ø 10ø 19:10:45 137ø 10ø 6.7 12445 IntSat5-2 Rk ----------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe from SeeSat-L by sending a message with 'unsubscribe' in the SUBJECT to SeeSat-L-request@lists.satellite.eu.org http://www2.satellite.eu.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
