Editorial interest 87/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A free test kit checks whether satellite software handles catalog numbers above 99,999, alongside a live tracker of catalog growth.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-25 issue.
For
Satellite software maintainers and parser developers
Worth noticing
The tracker reports 248 recent-launch objects with six-digit catalog numbers and none with nine-digit numbers.

Field notes

The page pairs a live last-30-days tracker with a command-line workflow: fetch a versioned corpus, then run a named parser preset or a custom parser. Its cases span Alpha-5 TLEs and six- and nine-digit NORAD_CAT_ID values, with OMM examples in four formats. The eight library comparisons are explicitly one-off runs at pinned versions, not ongoing compatibility guarantees.
