Please also consider adding a separate button or checkbox near the Slew button to periodically transmit selected target coordinates to a telescope mount. Please consider adding a checkbox or similar UI to the "Slew telescope to" GUI to automatically update RA and Dec coordinates in the GUI as a selected target moves or the user selects different targets. That said, it is possible to crudely track even fast-moving LEO satellites by rapidly clicking "Current object" and Slew, but this interaction can be easily improved and should be useful to myriad applications. Fast-moving objects like comets and satellites quickly drift away from the position captured with the "Current object" button. The telescope control interface operates on static coordinates and snapshots of an object's coordinates in time via the "Current object" button.
