Is it really changing this fast?
This morning I Up-Dated Orbitron,
Ran a prediction, and around noon was gonna be a pass to see if I could 
hear her.

This page,
http://www.satview.org/index.php

For my location at 6 AM had the pass happening about 10 minutes sooner 
than what Orbitron predicted.

So I came up to the radio at the web sites time, fired up the web page, 
and the bird had already passed and was deep in the southern hemisphere 
already.  WOW!

I re upped the tles again on Orbitron, and it too said down there. wow 
are the tles changing this quickly.

And where can we go to get the most current up to the minute if possible 
data?

Gonna be hard to try to see it re-enter if the times are this far off in 
only a couple hours.
