You can set Rob Matson's SkyMap to ignore Earth's shadow on the satellite (and sunlight at your location) - if you wish- or a huge magnitude limit - and a time interval down to one second. You can choose between a star map, with or without labels for satellites (and stars), a view from an arbitrary point such as Earth's centre to create a 'ground footprint', or just a list of alt-az positions. From 8329 elsets in 'satbase.zip' from Alan Pickup, SkyMap finds 1413 satellites above the Milano horizon at 21:35 local time tonight.
