Hi: I need help with Orbitron again.
The problem this time when I go to predict I get
A message on the screen that says
Information and X on the top It also tells me
No Iridium loaded
And the only option I have is say OK
This means I can,t get the latest keps.
Another thing I don,t understand is I haven,t been
Able to get current keps for VO-52
The others are ok before I had this predict problem.

Hi Jerry..
In the prediction setup tab, make sure you have it set for passes and not flares. This will make it do that I think.
Not sure about AO-52 but when you update keps, I use celestrak and tell it all.
Hope this helps out.

Go get the keps yourself from Space-Track. There are keps there for 11873 objects. One of them must be the bird you want.
