At the moment, ARISSAT-1 is still housed inside the International Space Station, so its keps are the same as the ISS. You can simply copy the ISS keps & paste them to the end of your keps file (amateur.txt, nasa.all, or whatever), change the satellite name to ARISSAT-1, and change the object number (the 5-digit number + letter in the first line, same 5-digit number in the second line) to 99999. I don't know that any more test operations from within the space station are planned.
Once ARISSAT-1 is released during the spacewalk, it will have its own keps.

The satellite program in HRD does not appear to list the ARISSat-1, thus there is no Kepler data and no way to track it in the program.
Does anyone know how to put the ARISSat-1 into the program?
Tnx, Ted K7TRK
