Note: The latest elset shows this 16 sec early against yesterday's
prediction. With still more than a day to go, there is a chance
that this decay might be visible along a south-easterly track that
crosses N America from Fairbanks, Alaska, at 23:22 UTC to Charleston,
S Carolina at 23:34. That track takes it near Winnipeg, Manitoba, at
23:29 and Chicago at 23:31. The following orbit, should it survive,
would carry it over the W USA.
