description = {a simple two-axis mount for supporting and rotating an instrument about two perpendicular axes --- one vertical and the other horizontal. Rotation about the vertical axis varies the azimuth (compass bearing) of the pointing direction of the instrument. Rotation about the horizontal axis varies the altitude angle (angle of elevation) of the pointing direction. These mounts are used, for example, with telescopes, cameras, and radio antennas.%

@acronym{TLE,
description = {two-line element set is a data format encoding a list of orbital elements of an Earth-orbiting object for a given point in time, the epoch. Using a suitable prediction formula, the state (position and velocity) at any point in the past or future can be estimated to some accuracy. TLEs can describe the trajectories only of Earth-orbiting objects. TLEs are widely used as input for projecting the future orbital tracks of space debris for purposes of characterizing ``future debris events to support risk analysis, close approach analysis, collision avoidance maneuvering'' and forensic analysis. The format was originally intended for punched cards, encoding a set of elements on two standard 80-column cards.%
