The following satellites from the SpaceX Falcon 9 SSO-A 12-03-2018 launch that have been identified to date by either Space-Track or by detailed doppler analysis Thanks again to Nico Janssen,PA0DLO, for the satellite ID updates for this week

MinXSS 2 - NORAD CAT ID 43758 HAWKEYE 1 - NORAD CAT ID 43765 (per SPACE-Track,commercial) AO-95 - NORAD CAT ID 43769 FLOCK 3S 1 - NORAD CAT ID 43770 (per SPACE-Track,commercial) PWSat 2 - NORAD CAT ID 43775 MOVE-II - NORAD CAT ID 43780 SNUSat 2 - NORAD CAT ID 43782 ITASat 1 - NORAD CAT ID 43786 Unknown Satellite - NORAD CAT ID 43787 (Downlink: 435:500 Mhz) EAGLET 1 - NORAD CAT ID 43790 ESEO - NORAD CAT ID 43792 CSIM - NORAD CAT ID 43793 HAWKEYE 2 - NORAD CAT ID 43794 (per SPACE-Track,commercial) SKYSAT C12 - NORAD CAT ID 43797 (per SPACE-Track,commercial) RANGE A - NORAD CAT ID 43798 HAWKEYE 3 - NORAD CAT ID 43799 (per SPACE-Track,commercial) SKYSAT C13 - NORAD CAT ID 43802 (per SPACE-Track,commercial) JO-97 - NORAD CAT ID 43803 Suomi 100 - NORAD CAT ID 43804 Al Farabi 2 - NORAD CAT ID 43805

The above list of SSO-A satellites has been included in the AMSAT-NA TLE Distibution this week with the exception of the following non-amateur radio satellites which have NOT been included:

HAWKEYE 1 - NORAD CAT ID 43765 (identified by Space-Track, non-amateur) FLOCK 3S 1 - NORAD CAT ID 43770 (identified by Space-Track, non-amateur) HAWKEYE 2 - NORAD CAT ID 43794 (identified by Space-Track, non-amateur) SKYSAT C12 - NORAD CAT ID 43797 (identified by Space-Track, non-amateur) HAWKEYE 3 - NORAD CAT ID 43799 (identified by Space-Track, non-amateur) SKYSAT C13 - NORAD CAT ID 43802 (identified by Space-Track, non-amateur)

Note: The Falcon 9 SSO-A 12/3/2018 launch includes 64 spacecraft (15 microsats and 49 cubesats) The 20 objects above are those objects out of a total of 55 listed by Space-Track org that have, so far, been identified with reasonable confidence

We continue to wait for the remaining satellites to separate enough for doppler analysis to confirm their identity I will continue to add satellites as they are identified
