Anyone here know what TLE to load for the latest shuttle mission? I want to track Endeavour but I can't find the right TLE for it.

Cheers

Download the latest TLE's and look in visual for STS-123 I think that's where it was last time Ray. I'll check when I get home from work.

Ray, I've Just downloaded the latest TLE's and loaded the visual set and STS-123 is available in that set for tracking.

Thanks Mick. Now for my next question. :biggrin:

How do I do a manual update for the tle files? Orbitron just usually does it every five days. I've never actually had to do it.:confused:

Thanks mate.

Click the small button in the top right corner and then click on the Autoupdate TLE button in the drop down list.

Endeavour is south of Perth atm, it will cross the SA coast soon and track through central Queensland. No lumination on this pass unfortunately.
