About Apr.28 1993-44 A suddenly achieved the normal decay rate, about five times faster than the previous two months, since it was brought out of its orbit with other EORSAT's 15.52 Mean Motion. I interpret this as a continous orbit correction system running out of fuel. With this decay rate, it should decay about a month from now, and be visible around midnight (northbound) at that time. (Except for my very bright summer nights) EORSAT 93-44 A 1 22709U 93044A 95123.69453808 .00281357 35199-4 55235-3 0 3391 2 22709 65.0214 330.0666 0116443 243.3374 115.6026 15.88561787103471Received on Thu May 04 1995 - 17:01:47 UTC
