    Advanced Question Accuracy of determing ISS altitude over time using orbiter

    Thank you for the good words, I believe we are going to take a NRT (near real time) request from NASA for a known time period, model the beginning of the period through orbiter and see how accurate it is. At the very least orbiter is a load of fun! Thanks again

    Advanced Question Accuracy of determing ISS altitude over time using orbiter

    Thanks for the help, we do receive telemetry from NASA, however it is real time altitude and we don't have a means of of modeling the deterioration over time. STK as well, only shows the real time altitude. We were just wondering if using orbiter would be a legitimate source for a study, thanks!

    Advanced Question Accuracy of determing ISS altitude over time using orbiter

    Hello, I work for a payload onboard the ISS, ISSAC (International Space Station Agriculture Camera). As you can guess, we are essentially a camera (as shown in the acronym) and the altitude of the ISS plays a factor in how accurate/the quality of the images we take. As the ISS will be boosted...
