  2. Satellite Catalog Number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satellite_Catalog_Number

    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.

  3. Two-line element set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-line_element_set

    A secondary cause for the increase in Satellite Catalog Numbers was the commercialization of space and break-up events and collisions that have created debris objects. [17] Adaptations of the TLE were considered to extend the number of encodable Satellites within the TLE but instead a new format, the CCSDS OMM (Orbit Mean-Elements Message ...

  4. International Designator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Designator

    Designators are assigned to objects by the United States Space Command along with satellite catalog numbers as they are discovered in space. [1] The United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA) and the National Space Science Data Center (NSSDC), part of NASA, maintain two catalogs that provide additional information on the launchers and payloads associated with the designators.

  5. List of satellite pass predictors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_satellite_pass...

    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.

    Chiravalle — (for example: Chiravalle 1 in Hercules, at galactic coordinates 75.25 / +27.91, which is an asterism called Candle and Holder). Chupina — (Chupina objects 1 to 5 are located at and near open star cluster Messier 67 in Cancer) CIO — Catalog of Infrared Observations; CLUST — (open star clusters) CMC — Carlsberg Meridian ...

  7. Simplified perturbations models - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simplified_perturbations...

    [1] [2] Simplified General Perturbations (SGP) models apply to near earth objects with an orbital period of less than 225 minutes. Simplified Deep Space Perturbations (SDP) models apply to objects with an orbital period greater than 225 minutes, which corresponds to an altitude of 5,877.5 km, assuming a circular orbit. [3]

  8. List of Kosmos satellites (751–1000) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Kosmos_satellites...

    Weight-possibly 700 kg. First satellite acknowledged as part of Navsat System. [10] Kosmos 1000 shape was a cylinder with a dome at each end (this was probably the standard small Kosmos satellite), all enclosed in a drum shaped solar panel, length and diameter about 2 meters. [11]

  9. Guide Star Catalog - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guide_Star_Catalog

    The Tycho Input Catalog was created by the Hipparcos/Tycho international consortia in preparation for the Hipparcos satellite mission. They produced a catalog containing the best available data for all stars to magnitude 11. Adding the bright star data from this catalog to the GSC produced a complete all-sky catalog down to the GSC limiting ...
