Two systems for tracking passive (non-cooperating) satellites are considered: the Navy Space Surveillance System (NavSpaSur) and the 'Millstone' active radar. Accuracy estimates are presented for both. Future improvements to both systems and combinations of them are also considered. The effect of large solar flares on prediction accuracy is estimated.
