Its orbital dimensions have not changed in ~ 26 hours. It looks like a standard magnitude of +4 has been assigned to rocket by a RADAR cross-sectional analysis. It may be of interest that Shenzhou III is orbiting at a height that is about 60 km lower than that of the orbit of the ISS. On Heavens-Above, enter the NORAD ID number of 27397 to look at the satellite. It is being listed as a UNK. The rocket has not been listed yet. The rocket will be decaying in about 6 days, according to SatEvo. ------------------------------ Jonathan T.
