-
- Manfred Bester's UNIX SatTrack is available at ftp.jvnc.net in
- /priv/kupiec. It tracks satellites in real-time on a VT-100 compatable
- terminal.
-
- The only satellite trackers for X are: (are there any others?)
-
- Source for these can be obtained at various sites. (use archie)
-
- Xsat: Makes PostScript maps of satellite tracks.
- Xephem: Tracks planets/stars in real-time, satellites can also be tracked.
- (A Linux binary of Xephem is available at the site mentioned above.)
- SFS: (Space Flight Simulator) Tracks satellties / moon / planets with
- views from many perspectives. Near real-time.
-
- Hope this helps.
