This contribution contains an algorithm to calculate the orbit of a satellite according to the third law of Kepler and Newton's law of gravitation.
The program loads input data from a file of type two-line elements (TLE).
An input TLE file: https://www.dropbox.com/s/lezxmsxnn6vai5n/TLE_skCUBE.txt?dl=0

TLE file type, information about satellite skCUBE is described in the following article:
