[QUOTE="hvdh, post: 1078470, member: 187415"] william-1, why not interpret TLE's correctly? Said this before, TLE's are just a snapshot of the motion (orbit) at one time (epoch). If you insist using n2yo.com: check the satellite details, TLE is at bottom: [URL='https://www.n2yo.com/satellite/?s=44479']Technical details for satellite AMOS 17[/URL] 1 44479U 19050A 19304.77569395 .00000082 00000-0 00000+0 0 9990 2 44479 0.0131 281.3588 0001722 299.1394 112.3924 1.00275901 938 The 19304 is the julian date, see for example: [URL='https://www.calendarlabs.com/view/2019-yearly-julian-calendar/1094']FREE Calendar Templates[/URL] 304 is 31 October, much older than most other satellites, now with epoch of 3 or 4 November.
