UTC UTC deg deg
SpaceCom Jan 16 01:33 Jan 16 01:25 +-7m 33.0 S 152.0 E

Final elset:

Note: The final published elset, above, shows this running 18 sec early
against yesterday's prediction. While it is probably that it decayed
around perigee on that orbit, near the SE coast of Australia, it is
possible that it survived into the following orbit and perhaps as far
as the next perigee.
