    Mike Waterman, Brad Young, and I, contributed observations used to determine one or more of the
    following element sets.

    If the interval between the first two perigee-raising manoeuvres is indicative of the plan, then the
    next burn would have occurred near the apogee passage of Sep 02 at 12:09:14 UTC; if so, it will be
    running several minutes late tonight, and a bit off track. If that is found to be the case, the
    following estimated post-manoeuvre elements may be helpful in assessing what is observed, or not:
    
                                                           770 X 49995 km
