Orbit Determination (OD) in the early phases of the AMSAT OSCAR 40 (A0-40)mission coincided with upgrades to a commercial satellite mission planning softwareprogram named AstroDynamics Environment (ADE). This unique timing providedopportunities for real-time mission support to the A0-40 Command Stations duringsome critical stages. ADE's capability has since further matured and is currently thebaseline orbit determination software for the NAVSTAR Global Positioning System(GPS) Launch and early orbit, Anomaly, and Disposal Operations (LADO). The author,being one of the primary developers of ADE. has unlimited personal use of the software.Thus the availability of this robust capability offers AMSAT the opportunity for moretimely and accurate OD support for current and future spacecraft missions.
