[QUOTE="hvdh, post: 1049043, member: 187415"] TLE's originating from the McCants' list have empty "revolutions" fields. Therefore the orbit number for SBIRS and GovSat in your screenshot must have "bogus" values. Unfortunately, only 2 TLE's were issued so far for GovSat-1: 21.5°E on 25 February, and 23.5°E on 22 April. Maybe GovSat-1 observations are easily confused with Eutelsat 21B and Astra 3B respectively... who knows. Anyway, GovSat-1 is operational officially since 19 March: [URL="https://www.ses.com/press-release/govsat-1-satellite-goes-operational"]GovSat-1 Satellite Goes Operational[/URL] [/QUOTE]
