Welcome! 

This page serves as a centralized base, covering all things. STK (Systems Tool Kit) is a physics-based simulation and modeling software used to visualize complex real-world scenarios. 

Some things that you can use STK for // STK can make easier include, but aren't limited to:

• Figuring out when a satellite is overhead a station so you can download your data
• Calculating the maximum time you may be in an eclipse without solar power
• Checking if your deployed solar panels aren't accidentally casting a shadow on each other
• Knowing what geographical targets your payload camera can actually see in orbit
• Determining how much a thunderstorm could mess up your radio signals
• Predicting if space debris may or may not snipe your satellite?!

Your scenario is your oyster!
