Observations 03 FEB 2014: ----------------------------------- Cosatrak 1 (Computerised satellite Tracking System). FLI M8300 CCD camera with 87mm focal length f/2.8 NIKON lens, field of view 12 x 9 degrees. Images measured manually. Site 0433 : Longitude 18.51294 deg East, Latitude 33.94058 deg S, Elevation 10 metres - situated in Pinelands (Cape Town), South Africa FOR CLASSFD.TLE ------------------------ 24680 96 072A 0433 G 20140203190405557 55 15 1144162-333223 39 +045 05 24680 96 072A 0433 G 20140203190426149 55 15 1130467-310313 39 +045 05 24680 96 072A 0433 G 20140203190446484 55 15 1117403-282028 39 +045 05 24680 96 072A 0433 G 20140203190502195 55 15 1107381-260005 39 +045 05 24680 96 072A 0433 G 20140203203849672 55 15 0131126-650928 39 +030 05 24680 96 072A 0433 G 20140203203904953 55 15 0157417-610903 39 +030 05 24680 96 072A 0433 G 20140203203920090 55 15 0218525-563048 39 +030 05 NOTES: -------- (1) Did a 150 minute plane scan under good conditions. Approximately 1700 images obtained on approximately 40 satellites - several of which I was not able to identify in real time ( but all going wrong track angle for that expected). Will measure them tomorrow in case any turn out to be a real "unknown" (2) Obtained two passes of what looks like USA 129. I have NOT checked against SARS satellites - the elements are on another computer. On the first pass got 11 images ( elevation about 14 degrees ) and second pass got 6 images ( elevation about 38 degrees). (3) I measured some of the images - I have a rather busy day tomorrow ( actually today as its past local midnight) so will only be able to start on measuring etc around local 11 am or so.
