Subj: Changes to AMSAT TLE Distribution for November 1, 2024
Path: IZ3LSV<I0OJJ<GB7CIP<VK2RZ<KC9UHI<KA1VSC<WG3K
Sent: 241103/1632Z 9777@WG3K.#SMD.MD.USA.NOAM LinBPQ6.0.24
Two Line Elements or TLEs, often referred to as Keplerian elements or keps in the amateur community, are the inputs to the SGP4 standard mathematical model of spacecraft orbits used by most amateur tracking programs. Weekly updates are completely adequate for most amateur satellites. TLE bulletin files are updated daily in the first hour of the UTC day. New bulletin files will be posted immediately after reliable elements become available for new amateur satellites. More information may be found at https://www.amsat.org/keplerian-elements-resources/.
The following satellites have been removed from this week's AMSAT TLE distribution:
UVSQ-SAT NORAD Cat ID 43758 Decayed from orbit on or about 26 October 2024
TianYi 6 NORAD Cat ID 43158 Decayed from orbit on or about 18 October 2024
[ANS thanks Joe Fitzgerald, KM1P, AMSAT Orbital Elements Manager, for the above information.]
