\label{sec:software-overview}
\index{software}\index{KStars}\index{Debian}
KStars is an application that has been used for years in the astronomy
community. It is well established, well supported and included in \gls{Debian}.
KStars has multiple uses for imaging \glspl{satellite}.
One main use is to control a telescope tracking mount, such as the
hardware described in section \ref{sec:hardware-mounts}, page \pageref{sec:hardware-mounts}.
For the purposes here, described below will be using KStars with a
Sky-Watcher tracking mount with INDI and Ekos.
It will be used in sidereal tracking mode, where the stars will appear as
``points'', and the \glspl{satellite} will appear as trails.
