This allowed me to check-up on PAN/NEMESIS-1 (2009-047A). It has drifted further westwards and is now near EXPRESS-AMU1 (2015-082A), near 36.2 E. On Dec 18, an article appeared in the French Press that suggested PAN/NEMESIS-1 had been eavesdropping on the French military comsat Sicral-2 (2015-022B) the past weeks: https://www.intelligenceonline.fr/surveillance--interception/2023/12/18/un-satellite-militaire-francais-espionne-par-le-programme-americain-nemesis,110119605-eve Between the previous observation early November and yesterday, PAN/NEMESIS-1 has indeed been drifting past Sicral-2, probably passing it late November. But as it has been drifting since this summer, Sicral-2 need not necessarily have been a target, especially as it seems that the drift was not halted. - Marco ----- Dr Marco Langbroek - SatTrackCam Leiden, the Netherlands. e-mail: sattrackcam_at_langbroek.org launchtower: http://launchtower.langbroek.org Station (b)log: http://sattrackcam.blogspot.com Twitter: _at_Marco_Langbroek ----- _______________________________________________ Seesat-l mailing list https://lists.seesatmail.org/mailman/listinfo/seesat-lReceived on Wed Dec 20 2023 - 08:53:38 UTC
