Anyone with questions is free to write to me for help. SKYMAP is good for trying to ID a UFO that may have been seen. The sky map astronomy part is good too. I just used it to confirm occultations of Uranus and Neptune visible in Korea next year. (I had mentioned to Rob that an "animation" of something like that would be very interesting) I'll try to help with questions on Skymap also. > One question for you. Where do you most often get your eleset files for > Satspy? There are links to several element sources from the VSOHP site. Kelso (Celestrak) has the VISUAL list that I compile. That is specifically for naked eye satellite observers. -- Jay Respler -- JRespler@surfnj.net Sky Views: http://njsurf.com/skyviews/ Satellite Tracker * Early Typewriter Collector Freehold, New Jersey
