There is no license associated with the code and you may use it for any purpose—personal or commercial—as you wish. We ask only that you include citations in your documentation and source code to show the source of the code and provide links to the main page, to facilitate communications regarding any questions on the theory or source code. " These requirements are fulfilled as per the README included in the sgp4 directory with Marble. Is that enough?

The full message with the reject can be seen here: https://lists.debian.org/debian-qt-kde/2016/06/msg00005.html I'm considering contacting the paper authors requesting a license clarification, but I wanted to contact this list first just in case you already contacted them. The authors of the paper are: David A. Vallado <dvallado at centerforspace.com> Paul Crawford <pcrawford at dundee0.demon.co.uk> Richard Hujsak <rhujsak at agi.com> T. S.
