SDO Tracking Timelapse 5-8-12 Posted by: messierhunter Video duration: 61 seconds Best viewed at 480p. 1 hour time lapse of tracking NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory. SDO orbits in a geosynchronous (though not geostationary) orbit. Tracked with an Orion ST-80 piggybacked on an LX200 Classic. Recorded with an MCHCP at 128x sens-up. Tracking performed with Brent Boshart's Satellite Tracker.

The space station (ISS) was tracked using the Satellite Tracker software and the video was captured directly using a video capture card. 55 seconds long. Note that the space station's solar panels make up the bottom of it's upside down T shape.

It's also incredibly small at 6.4 inches across and fairly high in altitude; its minimum distance when I tracked it was in excess of 3,300 km. That's the distance from Washington DC to Las Vegas.

By: messierhunter. on 22 Feb 12, 00:18:14 Thanks! I directly tracked it using Vanguard 1's orbital data. It was right where that data predicted it to be and, as expected, there were no other satellites in the area on that orbit. It was very easy to identify as it was the only fixed star-like object in the image (the other fixed points are all hot pixels in the camera). Most are just as easy to identify; the only sats that require a little more work are geostationary sats? since there's so many so close to each other. That's pretty ...

By: robertedwardfay. on 12 Dec 11, 04:48:38 Teach that the CME energy level is Very Weak when dispersed at distances and thus to be able to see it at all, 'brightness' of the surroundings must be removed by programming, And thus, the artifact arises as a built up 'ghost' image of Mercury from its previous locations in the data imagery.
