The Satellite Catalog Number (SATCAT), also known as NORAD Catalog Number, NORAD ID, USSPACECOM object number, is a sequential nine-digit number assigned by the United States Space Command (USSPACECOM), and previously the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD), in the order of launch or discovery to all artificial objects in the orbits of Earth and those that left Earth's orbit.

The satellite was designated USA-195 under the U.S. military's designation system, and received the International Designator 2007-046A and Satellite Catalog Number 32258. [ 1 ] [ 6 ] References
The maximum number of Satellite Catalog Numbers that can be encoded in a TLE is rapidly being approached with the recent commercialization of space and several key break-up events that have created a massive number of debris objects. Future adaptations of the TLE have been imagined to extend the number of encodable Satellites within the TLE. [17]

The International Designator, also known as COSPAR ID, is an international identifier assigned to artificial objects in space. [1] It consists of the launch year, a three-digit incrementing launch number of that year [n 1] and up to a three-letter code representing the sequential identifier of a piece in a launch.
Pass Predictions API by Re CAE provides a live objects catalog and pass predictions. It features a filtering system for the catalog to only display objects with matching name or ID. The pass predictions generates, among other things, the time window, minimum elevation and the apparent brightness of the object in the sky.
TDRS-10, known before launch as TDRS-J, is an American communications satellite which is operated by NASA as part of the Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System.It was constructed by the Boeing Satellite Development Center, formerly Hughes Space and Communications, and is based on the BSS-601 satellite bus.
