SatEvo has done better than with this decayer. In the end, I estimate that this came down near a southbound equator crossing near the Galapagos Islands in the eastern Pacific, just a little further along than SpaceCom's estimate which had been pretty consistent over the final three days. My SatEvo-predicted elsets for the final two revs are: UHF F/O 3 r 8.0 3.0 0.0 3.5 v 23 275 x 122 km 1 23133U 94035B 01095.28878162 .71086911 15400+1 12285-2 0 92669 2 23133 26.8286 53.6761 0116707 111.9486 249.2956 16.27812133158977 UHF F/O 3 r 8.0 3.0 0.0 3.5 v 23 218 x 119 km 1 23133U 94035B 01095.34980683 1.28983595 80135+1 14830-2 0 92660 2 23133 26.8268 53.1847 0075487 112.7695 248.0298 16.39090099158986 The final post-decay report from SpaceCom has not yet appeared. _____________________________________________________________________ Alan -- Alan Pickup / COSPAR 2707: 55d53m48.7s N 3d11m51.2s W 156m asl Edinburgh / SatEvo & elsets: http://www.wingar.demon.co.uk/satevo/ Scotland / Decay Watch: http://www.wingar.demon.co.uk/satevo/dkwatch/ * ----------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe from SeeSat-L by sending a message with 'unsubscribe' in the SUBJECT to SeeSat-L-request@lists.satellite.eu.org http://www2.satellite.eu.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
