Robert Simpson created this Google Earth database for the 100 brightest satellites using the NORAD Two Line Element database. This database updates with changes in spacecraft position, which is useful. For FallingStar meteor-tracking work the following extensions would be useful:
1) Add trajectory paths.
2) Merge with NAVSPACESPUR so we can listen to crossings.
3) Add more satellites and sort these by type for amateur radio operations.
4) Add more information to placard display when spacecraft are selected.
