    Warning to ISS watchers ... for the third time this year (the others
    being around February 11th and March 14th), ISS' orbit has been raised.
    Sometime between 5h and 20h UTC today (April 4th), the perigee was raised
    almost 4 miles (6 km) and the apogee also slightly increased by 1/3 mile
    (1/2 km). As a result, and more significantly, the [anomalistic] period
    has increased by about 4 seconds, so be sure to get the latest TLEs for
    ISS.
    
    Clear and dark skies!
