Despite your assertion to the contrary, in many cases your "unclonable" modules are missing prerequisites. I am the author of Astro-SpaccTrack, and I can guarantee you it will not install without LWP-Protocol-https, which is also among your "unclonable" modules. My experience is that installing Net-SSLeay tends to fail because of fragile tests against informational output. Once you have force-installed (yukk!) Net::SSLeay, you should be able to install Astro::SpaceTrack without forcing it. This probably also applies to the other SSL-using modules such as SOAP-Lite.

In general, when any Perl module fails to install, the first thing to do is to check whether (or not) all its prerequisites installed. If they did not (as in this case), you need to work your way back along the dependency chain and see what module(s) started the failure cascade. When you get there, you will need to provide the actual failure to get useful help, whether you go to a public forum or contact the author of the module.
