What "kind" of keps do we use to track this? 73 Bob W7LRD

Hi, JPL's Horizons Web Site will likely have these objects in their data base when launched. From there you can get RA/Dec or generate AZ/EL for your QTH. You can enter RA/Dec into NOVA and it will track it like any other celestial target. Not sure if other satellite programs have this feature.
