If I’m not mistaken, NASA has been releasing two-line element sets for the SGP4 proagator for all of these satellites for a long time. What’s the big deal about some lovey-dovey scientists putting it into a spreadshhet? I’ll bet thousands of amatuer astronomers have already made their own and some prbobaly post them on the web.
In general I do not support this blog’s liberal defeatist political bent. Putting politics before country in time of war is conteptable.
