where your spacecraft is against where it should be, when you can talk to it, how much data fits through the window, and how long the propellant lasts

GET ANSWER TO QUESTIONS

  • Where is my spacecraft against where it should be?
  • When can I talk to it, and for how long?
  • How much data fits through the window?
  • How long does the propellant last at this rate?
  • What is the collision risk for this orbit?

FleetWatch

For one spacecraft or a fleet of fifty

A monthly picture of the next three to six months, for each object you subscribe. It is an operating horizon, not a lifetime prediction.

Contact windows over a month ILLUSTRATIVE

A horizontal strip standing for one month, with a spacecraft on each of two rows. Along each row, contact windows are drawn as narrow outlined boxes of differing widths. They are not evenly spaced: they arrive in clusters of three or four close together, then long stretches of bare line with none at all. Two brackets under the lower row label one cluster and the empty span beside it. The strip carries no dates, no durations, no station names and no axis values, and the figure is labelled illustrative.

  1. Contact windows

    When each spacecraft is in contact with a chosen ground station, for how long, and the total per period.

  2. Data volume per window

    How much can realistically be downlinked through them.

  3. Position against prediction

    Where the object actually is against where we said it would be, with the model refined each month.

  4. Orbit keeping

    Given remaining propellant, how long station keeping can be sustained.

  5. Indicative decay state

    Expected time at stated altitudes, the change over the last day, and the rate of fall.

  6. Collision risk

    The probability of a collision for the orbit, derived from the debris flux environment.
