Does anyone know the Space Track catalog ID for the Navy satellite they're about to shoot down? I don't even know if they're available, but if they are, I wanted to see the track before it's destroyed.
Thanks!
Here's Heavens Above's data:

I haven't found it anyplace else

It would be cool if they could make it disappear from the tracking screen "If" they hit it ;-)
Just like the movies....
So what are we looking for? A mid northern pacific pass...anyone care to guess which one?

Hi Rick,

http://www.heavens-above.com has added a feature section about the decaying orbit of spy satellite USA 193. It shows its current location in orbit and also includes visual spotting opportunities.

Thanks! I really just needed the name ("USA 193"), but now, when I check Space-Track, I get "no record", even though it knows about USA 193. Have they always not served TLEs? How does Heavens-Above have a TLE for it?
