http://www.boeing.com/ids/advanced_systems/orbital/updates.html 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.
