I have updated my Decay Watch page at
http://www.wingar.demon.co.uk/satevo/dkwatch/
with my latest prediction for the decay of #9854 (77- 15 B = Cosmos 895
rocket). I now show this at Feb 14 05:20 UTC +-4h near a northbound
equator crossing at 26.9 W, between Brazil and W Africa. The track that
would take it to the E of Iceland at 05:35 UTC. My predicted elset for
the final complete orbit is:
Cosmos 895 r 3.8 2.6 0.0 5.1 v 10 130 x 127 km
1 09854U 77015B 00045.16148890 .42096739 22141+1 27583-3 0 97122
2 09854 81.1158 196.6130 0002547 280.4281 79.5432 16.54140586266678
SpaceCom's latest warning, issued at 03:49 UTC today, is for the decay
to occur at Feb 14 03:50 +-17h while northbound near 18.7 S, 6.6 E.
Geomagnetic conditions have subsided after yesterday's storm, but remain
slightly unsettled.
