Skyfield automatically downloads the TLEs if you like or you can get them yourself as SamLow explains. For spacecraft not in Earth Orbit you can get them from Horizons. For learning materials I recommend just start reading questions and answers here, that's how I learned! | |

| Mar 5, 2020 at 5:44 | comment | added | Samuel Low | For starters: If you're looking for positioning data, you can start simple by downloading the two-line element (TLE) off CelesTrak, and if you want to avoid any coding, you can simply paste it into STK's free licensed SGP4 propagator. Then, you can access their Reports and Graphs Manager, and output the Positions, Velocities, classical elements, and any other forms of data you might like :) | |
