OIG gave me the following latest element for the (untethered) TSS:
TSS
1 23805U 96012B   96073.57254860  .01070042  43572-3  40746-2 0   631
2 23805  28.4700 142.4175 0043993  15.7022 344.4961 15.84807518  3113

from which I predict decay at about March 20.5 (4 hours after the vernal
equinox).

My SatEvo evolution of this element for the next three days:
