Check my Decay Watch page at

      http://www.wingar.demon.co.uk/satevo/dkwatch/

for today's update.

SpaceCom's final decay notice, plus one further elset, for Sputnik 99
does not change my own analysis of yesterday's decay, though my
predicted elset for the final rev becomes:
Sputnik 99       0.3  0.0  0.0  9.0 d 0.28       130 x 127 km
1 25685U 99015C   99210.70297749  .52354089  35768+1  30655-3 0 91871
2 25685  51.6529 112.0363 0002647 235.3716 124.6034 16.54174952 16571

#25877, Mir debris NJ, will decay at July 31 10:04 UTC +-6h by my
current estimate.
