We don't know yet. Satellites (especially defunct) don't have active live tracking like ships. Satellite sites show them based on calculated trajectories. Edit

So what's that, about 90 minutes from now assuming I've got the right info?
- runarberg 6y agoAre these satellites visible by telescope, can someone in e.g. Ankara try to spot SL-8 R/B 12443 as it as it flies over there in a few seconds?
- sitkack 6y agoIs there an automated amateur run satellite tracking network? Just tracking points of light at dusk/dawn is an easy thing and wouldn't even require pointing, imagers could be fixed.
