Subj: Changes to AMSAT-NA TLE Distribution for March 29, 2024
Path: IW8PGT<IZ3LSV<I0OJJ<N6RME<CX2SA<N3HYM<WG3K
Sent: 240331/1355Z 2654@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 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 satellite has been removed from this week's AMSAT-NA TLE
distribution:
XW-2E NORAD Cat ID 40909 Decayed from orbit on or about 28 March 2024
