I'm looking for some good tracking software to track the live decent of UARS a 1200 lbs satellite as it crashes to Earth later today. (for Windows 7)

 

I need something that has the ability to track UARS in real time with second by second updated info and not just a 'prediction' track based on where it's orbit should be, as a simulation would.

 

There is also another German made satellite that's going to crash soon I want to track.

 

I'm looking for something easy to use, accurate.

It might reflect my dumbness.

How such software work? Does government has any control over these?
