 @9595301e Now this I can help you with. Those are satellites in a geostationary orbit. They are big expensive fuckers for TV and shit. They're basically falling in the same speed and direction as the earth is rotating.

I don't track those big boring ones. I track amsats, like AO-27 which scream across the sky in about 8 minutes because they're kinda just chucked into orbit.
