    According to this site, the OrbEx separation ring should be 
    jettisoned soon. This object would probably receive the designator 
    2007-006-H. I don't know how visible the ring will be.
    
    On another note, when the primary and secondary spacecraft are 
    separated, but in proximity, it would be interesting to see if they 
    could be resolved as separate objects.
