My Decay Watch page now has the first decay notices for two more decayers, including the retrograde Shavit rocket. Summaries follow; check the page for predicted elsets. _____________________________________________________________________ Object: #22851 = 92- 21 F = Telecom 2B Ariane 44L+ deb F Decay predictions: Source Prediction made Predicted decay at Latitude Longitude UTC UTC deg deg SpaceCom Aug 25 17:17 Aug 29 06:03 +-2d 1.5 N 177.5 W SatEvo Aug 25 18:05 Aug 29 20:03 +-1.4d Latest elset: Ariane V44 rDb 11.4 2.6 0.0 4.0 v 47 1617 x 132 km 1 22851U 92021F 02237.64678933 .15438986 -22871-4 17395-2 0 6041 2 22851 3.7495 119.2168 1023838 298.1218 51.9144 14.05607722110484 Note: This apparently large and bright, near-equatorial, debris object enters eclipse while near 1300 km altitude and 1 deg N in the evening.
