I have TheSKY and it can track satellites .... the Meade and Celestron 
mounts are not the best for that however ... Software Bisque (who wrote 
TheSKY) have their own mount that can be driven to track them ... I believe 
that one of the fellows at the planetarium in Boston (Ron Dantowitz) wrote 
a program to drive the Meade to track them ... I know he has taken video 
and CCD images of the ISS ....
