The final (so far) elsets from OIG are: GPS SVN43 r 5.9 2.4 0.0 5.6 d 163 x 122 km 1 24877U 97035B 98002.78708285 .28849449 50219-5 24353-3 0 3125 2 24877 37.6775 275.3191 0031686 338.5669 21.3283 16.48793477 24491 GPS SVN43 r 5.9 2.4 0.0 5.6 d 179 x 117 km 1 24877U 97035B 98002.84758288 .13192631 51339-5 10404-3 0 3135 2 24877 37.6569 274.7888 0047895 29.1653 331.0961 16.46820263 24501 The last one, showing a decrease in drag and mean motion and an increase in the apogee height, is clearly wrong though it suggests to me that it was still in orbit when it overflew Mexico and the SE USA, passing to the S of New Orleans (20:33 UTC) to Charleston, So Carolina (20:35). My best fit to elsets over the final 12 hours ends...
