Hello everyone. Using COSMOS-2370 1 26354U 00023A 00138.57575688 .00482270 12294-3 49892-3 0 404 2 26354 64.7622 46.8618 0035374 68.0186 292.4757 16.08895935 2252 My visible pass prediction was listed as 01:49:16 UTC 21 May With a newer elset: COSMOS-2370 1 26354U 00023A 00140.57256842 .00332987 54615-4 52197-3 0 501 2 26354 64.7572 39.5132 0047089 97.6455 262.9565 16.01447382 2575 The prediction is for: 02:15:23 UTC 21 May or about 25 minutes later. Is this an indication of a new spacecraft maneuvering into the proper orbit? Or will this object behave more like TRMM where it's orbit will be boosted often - making long term predictions inaccurate? At: http://hea-www.harvard.edu/~jcm/space/jsr/latest.html Jonathan's Space Report lists the spacecraft as possibly "Neman class - a descendant of the Yantar'-4KS1 design" Is there some history of the behavior of these types of spacecraft?
