See the location of the International Space station, Chinese Space Station, SpaceX Starlink, and all other earth orbiting satellites.
Did you know the brightest man-made object orbiting the earth is the International Space Station?
And, did you know it is very easily seen on a clear night?
With the Satellite Tracking application, you can determine when the space station or other satellites are visible from your location for viewing or communicating.
There are over 8000+ satellites currently orbiting Earth.
Some of these include amateur radio, Hubble space telescope, GPS, navigation, communication, earth and science, scientific, plus many more!
The Satellite Tracking application features include:
Support for Airspy SDR#, FlexRadio, Icom and compatible, Kenwood TS-2000, Yaesu FT-100, FT-736, FT-817, FT-818, FT-847, FT-991, and FT-897 radios. Yaesu and compatible rotators.
IO-117 (GreenCube), FO-118 (CAS-5A), and HO-119 (XW-4, CAS-10).

Tracking the International Space Station (ISS) is free. For other satellites, after a 30 day period after installation, users are encouraged via a dialog to acquire an add-on to continue tracking. After a 45 day period, an add-on is required for tracking other than the ISS. An add-on is available to control radios, rotators, and tracking. On May 21, 2024, Microsoft announced Bing Maps for Enterprise free license, which this app uses, will no longer be supported beyond June 30, 2025. If the free license does get eliminated, the app will switch to a new mapping scheme and may need to adjust some features and/or add-ons to accommodate the changes.
Perhaps you want to spot the station, get current position of ISS, or ask yourself where is the international space station?
