abstract = {Problem statement: In this study, an analytical expression for predicting mutually visible between Earth’s satellites is developed. Approach: A relative satellite-satellite visibility function is developed in terms of orbital elements for two satellites in the same orbital plane. Also, a simple computational algorithm is expressed to compute the visibility function. Results: This study presents a new and easy method to determine the visibility times between two satellites which are in the same orbital plane. Conclusion: The satellite-satellite visibility function is solved by an easy treatment.},
