Changes to AMSAT-NA TLE Distribution for February 23, 2024
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. Elements in
the TLE bulletin files are updated daily. TLE bulletin files are updated to
add or remove satellites as necessary Thursday evenings around 2300 UTC, or
more frequently if new high interest satellites are launched. More
information may be found at
https://www.amsat.org/keplerian-elements-resources/
The following satellites have been removed from this weekâÖs AMSAT-NA TLE
distribution:
CAPE-3 NORAD Cat ID 47309 Decayed from orbit on or about 17 February 2024
GRIFEX NORAD Cat ID 40379 Decayed from orbit on or about 22 February 2024
[ANS thanks Joe Fitzgerald, KM1P, AMSAT Orbital Elements Manager for the
above information.]
