North and South

Hi All.

Now I should probably know this, but I thought i might just ask anyway.

I have my set-up aligned to the SCP, and when i send it to park home, it slews, and stops itself pointing to the SCP, with the counter weight down etc.

This is where it stays until it fires up again.

Anyway, a couple of nights ago i decide to just look through the scope with a 17mm EP, and see how close i was to the actual pole, and to see if i could see Sigma Octans etc.

While i was doing this a satelite passed through the center of the EP, on more than one occasion.

The question I want to ask is this, is there a satelite that goes around the poles from north to south.


Cheers Leon
