Hi Guys,
Anyone know where I can get current satellite TLE data for any space junk that might be passing over Ireland. Scope is connected and tracking using satellite tracker,thanks Dave for the software! But there are differences between the satellites I see on Starry night and satellite tracker program.

hey Tom,
Are the 2 programs using the same satellite tracker file, and are both programs using the exact same latitude, longtitude and time, if not, they wont show the same satellites.
you can use starrynight to pull down the latest file, I've never manually pulled down a file off the web.

Hi Dave,
Looks like programs are using diffrent tracker files. Diffrences in Latitude, longtitude and time are not the problem, that one is quite obvious to me.
I pulled down TLE data from Celes Trak and sucessfully imported data into satellite tracker.Its just .txt file with orbital data.
