AI Thread Summary
A user is seeking assistance in building a satellite tracker using an Arduino controller, specifically looking for open-source JavaScript that can manage inputs for azimuth and elevation. The goal is to control two stepper motors to adjust the antenna's position accurately. The user expresses a lack of programming skills and is looking for resources or existing code to facilitate the project. A suggestion is made to explore Arduino's software interfacing forum for potential solutions and community support.

Hi I am trying to build a satellite tracker for fun, to get information out of the cube sat projects or any satellite I can track. I was wondering if there was any open source java scripts for an arduino controller that would take and input for azimuth and elevation and output for two stepper motors for the platforms two degree's of motion to point the antenna. Thanks I am terrible at programming!

Thread 'Is this public key encryption?'

I've tried to intuit public key encryption but never quite managed. But this seems to wrap it up in a bow. This seems to be a very elegant way of transmitting a message publicly that only the sender and receiver can decipher. Is this how PKE works? No, it cant be. In the above case, the requester knows the target's "secret" key - because they have his ID, and therefore knows his birthdate.
