Satellite tracking program

Gpredict is a real time satellite tracking and orbit prediction program for the Linux desktop. It uses the SGP4/SDP4 propagation algorithms together with NORAD two-line element sets (TLE).

Some core features of Gpredict include:

 * Tracking of a large number of satellites only limited by the physical
   memory and processing power of the computer
 * Display the tracking data in lists, maps, polar plots and any combination
   of these
 * Have many modules open at the same either in a notebook or in their own
   windows. The modules can also run in full-screen mode
 * You can use many ground stations
 * Predict upcoming passes
 * Gpredict can run in real-time, simulated real-time (fast forward and
   backward), and manual time control
 * Detailed information both the real time and non-real time modes
 * Doppler tuning of radios via Hamlib rigctld
 * Antenna rotator control via Hamlib rotctld
