    abstract

    A method is given for determining the absolute direction in space of the line joining two satellite tracking stations from the simultaneity circles passing by pairs of simultaneous observations of satellites. Control formulas for stellar triangulations, formulas for the computation of the azimuth of the line joining two stations, for the correction of the height of the second station, etc., are considered.
