    1993-067A (#22875) Cosmos 2265
    
    Thank you very much for all the reports of the visual observation
    of Cosmos 2265. They confirmed that the object is indeed 
    spherical. A special thank to Vladimir Agapov. He informs me
    that Cosmos 2265 is an object of the "Taifun 1B" class, a radar
    calibration sphere, white painted with a diameter of 2.0 m and
    a mass of 750 kg. A perfect test body for the decay and
    reentry predictions.
