SPACE SHUTTLE ORBITAL DATA:
These 2-line elements have been generated using Ken Ernandes' program
VEC2TLE using real time state vector data supplied by DOD C-Band Radar
Network courtesy Dave Simonson. Note that the epoch of the 2-line
elements is the same as the state vector time.
Drag and B-Star parameters are internally calculated by VEC2TLE using
a drag factor of 0.5. Rev numbers use NASA orbit numbering convention.
