That is a very good source. It gives details on all the satellite systems. The guy running it is an Iridium fan because of their space switching = networks being his specialty. So most of the info is about Iridium. He also worked in constellation topology and he has got a neat coverage map for the various systems. Actually, Globalstar footprints are elliptical rather than circular, with the long axis aligned with the direction of travel to give longer times between handoffs to the next satellite.

Go to "Overview" for the Globalstar section. Well worth a visit.

Launch schedules included there.

Thanks to J Siddall in the Iridium stream for those addresses.
