A couple months ago I asked a some very basic questions concerning Iridium
satellites. Thank you to all that responded; I have learned much thanks to
your help.
I can now explain why I needed your help to get me started; you may find it
interesting...
Back in the very beginning, I used a search engine to locate the VSOHP. I
thought it was very odd that the home page had NO information on Iridiums.
Here is the explanation: the search engine put me through to this URL:
http://sat.physics.ox.ac.uk/sat/satintro.html
It appears to be a very convincing-looking impostor. After one of you
graciously pointed me to the CORRECT site, I found all the Iridium info I was
looking for.
Has this happened to anyone else? Can anyone explain what the duplicate site
is supposed to be? Slightly inconvenient, if you ask me.
Thanks again!
