SatEvo decay list #10 (issued 1996 August 3) Here are my latest SatEvo decay predictions. The "Actual?" decay times are estimated from the final available elements. Many STEP-2 Pegasus fragments are being catalogued in orbits which will take them to decay within a couple of years... # Designation Name ------- Decay ------- Predicted Actual? 23957 94- 29 E STEP-2 Pegasus deb July 22.2 22461 92- 93 FA SL-16 deb July 25.25 18277 71- 3 C SL-3 deb July 27.65 23960 94- 29 H STEP-2 Pegasus deb July 30 ? 23685 95- 54 F SL-12 R aux motor August 2.15 24072 96- 43 B Progress R August 3.1 23981 94- 29 AB STEP-2 Pegasus deb August 5 24022 94- 29 BT STEP-2 Pegasus deb August 20 24037 94- 29 CJ STEP-2 Pegasus deb August 23 23962 94- 29 K STEP-2 Pegasus deb August 24 23988 94- 29 AJ STEP-2 Pegasus deb August 31 24028 94- 29 BZ STEP-2 Pegasus deb September 4 23959 94- 29 G STEP-2 Pegasus deb September 7 23927 86- 17 LP GFZ 1 deb September 15 23956 94- 29 D STEP-2 Pegasus deb September 17 23958 94- 29 F STEP-2 Pegasus deb September 17 23926 86- 17 LN GFZ 1 deb September 30 21794 91- 79 F SL-12 R aux motor September 30 23965 94- 29 N STEP-2 Pegasus deb October 14 4641 70- 25 Z Thorad Agena D deb October 14 16982 86- 73 B NOAA 10 deb October 25 Bjorn Gimle maintains a WWW resource of decay information at http://www.algonet.se/~b_gimle/ Alan -- Alan Pickup | COSPAR site 2707: 55d53m48.7s N 3d11m51.2s W 156m asl Edinburgh | Home: alan@wingar.demon.co.uk +44 (0)131 477 9144 Scotland | Royal Observatory: A.Pickup@roe.ac.uk +44 (0)131 668 8224
