Up, up and away...
It becomes mind boggling when you consider all the man made objects
that have been hurled into space and what is required to identify and position the orbits
of all this space matter. A program has been devised that plots all the known dots that
appear on tracking screens. The URL provided here allows the user to select a dot,
identify its’ name and orbit. the user can also zoom in or out and explore other
options that are available.
