SB SAREX @ AMSAT $STS-78.020 STS-78 World R/S Times 6/29 Below are the rise and set times for STS-78 for selected world cities over the next three days. This data was generated to help hams without orbit programs to participate in the SAREX activities. Please note that the times shown are UTC and NOT LOCAL TIME. This listing includes only those passes with an elevation greater than 5 degrees. For information regarding SAREX frequencies and operations procedures, check your local PBBS, or bulletins from W1AW, W5RRR, W6VIO or WA3NAN. Symbol key: rise = time that shuttle appears above horizon tca = time of closest approach to observer and maximium elevation set = time that shuttle disappears below horizon el = maximium elevation above horizon az = azimuth at time of maximium elevation geo = geometry: A = Ascending orbit, moving south to north D = Descending orbit, moving north to south E = passes east of observer W = passes west of observer London, England STS-78 Element Set 910 date rise tca set el az geo orbit No passes above horizon for this city Paris, France STS-78 Element Set 910 date rise tca set el az geo orbit 29Jun96 06:58:41 07:01:29 07:04:33 5 171 A-E 140 29Jun96 08:32:03 08:35:14 08:38:18 6 184 D-W 141 30Jun96 06:55:18 06:58:22 07:01:29 6 174 A-E 156 30Jun96 08:28:59 08:31:52 08:34:56 5 191 D-W 157 01Jul96 06:51:52 06:54:59 06:58:14 6 179 A-E 172 Tokyo, Japan STS-78 Element Set 910 date rise tca set el az geo orbit 29Jun96 01:07:07 01:11:29 01:15:52 74 201 D-W 136 29Jun96 02:41:56 02:45:33 02:49:11 10 214 D-W 137 29Jun96 18:47:41 18:50:56 18:54:22 8 147 A-E 148 29Jun96 20:20:45 20:25:00 20:29:19 58 159 A-E 149 29Jun96 21:55:14 21:59:29 22:03:47 36 353 A-W 150 29Jun96 23:29:50 23:34:09 23:38:28 41 11 D-E 151 30Jun96 01:04:14 01:08:33 01:12:48 41 202 D-W 152 30Jun96 02:39:29 02:42:18 02:45:22 5 220 D-W 153 30Jun96 18:43:59 18:47:18 18:51:41 13 163 A-E 164 30Jun96 20:17:38 20:21:57 20:26:19 82 342 A-W 165 30Jun96 21:52:16 21:56:31 22:00:46 33 359 A-W 166 30Jun96 23:26:44 23:31:07 23:35:26 56 15 D-E 167 01Jul96 01:01:13 01:05:24 01:09:29 23 207 D-W 168 01Jul96 18:40:26 18:44:28 18:48:39 24 154 A-E 180 01Jul96 20:14:28 20:18:46 20:23:05 53 348 A-W 181 01Jul96 21:49:06 21:53:21 21:57:36 33 2 D-E 182 01Jul96 23:23:31 23:27:54 23:32:13 86 18 D-E 183 Sydney, Australia STS-78 Element Set 910 date rise tca set el az geo orbit 29Jun96 06:04:07 06:07:22 06:10:52 8 34 D-E 139 29Jun96 07:37:13 07:41:32 07:45:50 70 23 D-E 140 29Jun96 09:11:52 09:16:04 09:20:15 26 189 D-W 141 29Jun96 10:46:41 10:50:49 10:55:00 24 174 A-E 142 29Jun96 12:21:05 12:25:24 12:29:39 87 336 A-W 143 29Jun96 13:55:58 13:59:24 14:02:58 10 323 A-W 144 30Jun96 06:00:29 06:04:14 06:08:14 14 29 D-E 155 30Jun96 07:34:13 07:38:34 07:42:52 64 199 D-W 156 30Jun96 09:09:04 09:13:04 09:17:19 23 190 D-W 157 30Jun96 10:43:41 10:48:00 10:52:07 30 165 A-E 158 30Jun96 12:18:07 12:22:23 12:26:35 44 335 A-W 159 01Jul96 05:56:59 06:01:07 06:05:18 26 28 D-E 171 01Jul96 07:31:12 07:35:27 07:39:46 40 196 D-W 172 01Jul96 09:06:01 09:10:12 09:14:16 22 178 A-E 173 01Jul96 10:40:33 10:44:52 10:49:07 42 164 A-E 174 01Jul96 12:15:03 12:19:07 12:23:12 23 328 A-W 175 Compiled by Dan Schultz, N8FGV Submitted by Frank H.
