[amsat-bb] Re: Satellite hit by debris from weapon test
I've got no problem with Trevor's posts. I would prefer they continue rather than stop. But for those who AREN'T interested, perhaps Trevor could add some easily recognizable mark to the news posts, to make it easier to filter them out while not blocking his other posts? Like adding FYI:: to the subject or something? If Trevor decides to do something like that to accommodate those who don't want the news, they should consider that he is paying them a courtesy. If it were me, I sure wouldn't bother. -- 73, de Gus 8P6SM Barbados, the easternmost isle. ___ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org. Opinions expressed are those of the author. Not an AMSAT-NA member?

[amsat-bb] Re: Satellite hit by debris from weapon test
Dennis, Dashboard cameras. OK, you asked a serious question, but I couldn't resist. The real answer is that it comes down to an array of radars, and lots of computing power at Space Command, or other similar agencies. Ordinary launches are fairly obvious, as are the "dropped" gloves, tool kits, washers, etc from the ISS or other such operations. They track these, and can predict close approaches very accurately. We get close approach warnings periodically for AMSAT spacecraft. In this case, it was the remains of a weapons test. That is a lot messier. All the debris radiates outward from the initial impact/explosion, and there are often large numbers of them. The source can be identified since the debris can be projected/calculated backward in time to the initial point. After that, it is just a matter of continuous updates over the years. 73s, Alan WA4SCA ___ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org. Opinions expressed are those of the author. Not an AMSAT-NA member?

Most of the time I've heard of them before, but sometimes not. In the information age where we are bombarded by multiple firehoses, it is easy to miss something. Having relevant items pointed to here helps that, at least some. Emails are light and easy to deal with. The simple application of the delete key in your mailer makes them go away. In general 50% of the emails I get on lists are deleted fairly quickly, leaving the others for more reading. If people like Ted don't like them, any subject header that smells like a re-transmission should be automatically deleted, and if that really really isn't enough, mails from Trevor could simply be zapped on arrival.
