* `pass` : Calculate the next passes above a given COSPAR site.
Example usage:
- List all ISS passes (NORAD ID 25544) at Dwingeloo Telescope (COSPAR
site ID 9998) for the next 10 hours (3600 seconds) based on the TLE
in catalog.tle (drop `-a` to only show the visible passes)
```
pass -i 25544 -s 9998 -l 36000 -c $ST_TLEDIR/catalog.tle -a
```
- Append `-P` in order to invoke `skymap` to plot a skymap and the
sky track for each predicted pass
* `satorbit`: Show a 3D representation of the earth, the current position,
footprint and orbit of the selected object
Example usage:
- Show ISS position, footprint and orbit
```
satorbit -i 25544 -c $ST_TLEDIR/catalog.tle
```
* `launchtle`: This tool takes an input TLE and launchtime and then corrects
the epoch of the TLE for the new launch time, and adjusts the right ascension
of the ascending node for how much it would have changed between the old
and new launch time.
Example usage:
- Use the given pre-launch TLE of object 70002 (stored in prelaunch.tle) associated with
the original launch time of 2018-11-11T03:00:00Z to correct for the new launch time
at 2018-11-11T05:00:00Z and store it with a new identifier (70003 here):
```
launchtle -c prelaunch.tle -i 70002 -t 2018-11-11T03:00:00 -T 2018-11-11T05:00:00 -I 70003
```
