    I prefer:
    
    Unknown 130725                  
    1 99212U 13705A   13242.06231536 0.00000234  00000-0  69124-3 0    04
    2 99212  27.9069 237.6569 7304207 356.6466   8.6181  2.17422144    06
    
    But an orbit like the one above is also possible:
    
    Unknown 130725                  
    1 99212U 13705A   13242.05766553  .00000248  00000-0  16800-5 0    05
    2 99212  28.0651 237.1318 7277191 353.9456   5.4392  2.34143777    02
