By the way, Simone, I tryed to use your off line modelling program to reconstruct the 3D constellation of the Niwaka and the ISS. >From here: http://www.satflare.com/download.php?sid=1 can download this version: VisualSatFlareTracker3D_173.zip If I start (on linux with wine emulator) it send only a run time error: "Runtime error 380 Invalid property value" have you any key for me, where can I find the right path to the stars? t.janos On Mon, Dec 10, 2012 at 12:08 AM, satrack@libero.it <satrack@libero.it>wrote: > According to the current TLEs and data, on the 12th of December at around > 21 > UTC, > the FitSat-1 cube sat will overtake the International Space Station, > exposing > its LEDs > toward the station. > > Thanks to both the good orientation and the short distance between the two > objects, > the LEDs should be easily visible from the ISS. > > However, the first LED activation after this date is scheduled only at > 22.10 > UTC > December 13 when the Station will be already too far. > > 13/12/2012 22.12.30 UTC - Distance 2330 km - Led Angle 55 deg - LED > Magnitude > 11 > > If the activation would be rescheduled for the pass at 23.06 UTC on the > 12th > of December > (one day before) the same regions on the Earth could observe the LEDs (the > pass is very > similar to the planned one) and the ISS would be in a good position as > well, > at a distance of > 260 km under an angle of 57 deg.
