Satellites
The Satellites section provides tools for browsing, filtering, and analyzing objects in Earth orbit. Citra Space aggregates satellite data from multiple providers into a unified catalog, giving you access to orbital elements, transmission frequencies, aliases, observation data, and more.
From here you can:
- Browse and filter the satellite catalog by name, NORAD ID, country, and other attributes
- View aliases and transmissions for individual satellites
- Analyze orbital elements with history charts, comparison tools, and residual analysis
- Detect maneuvers — see deliberate orbital changes with delta-v breakdowns across radial, in-track, and cross-track components
- Calculate close approaches between a satellite and other cataloged objects for conjunction screening
- Calculate ground station visibility to plan observation windows across your stations
- Create and manage element sets including GP, external, and analyst-derived orbital elements
- Request collections — schedule optical or TDOA observation windows across available sensors
- View tasking schedules — track scheduled, completed, and canceled observation tasks
- Review image uploads and RF captures — access processed telescope imagery and radio frequency recordings from ground-based sensors
