    Space track data show's Galaxy 11 ( 26038 ) still in a drift orbit.
    
    Problem is Intelsat's data show's galaxy 11 has beem inserted into it's orbital slot of 55.5 degrees West, are beside Intelsat 805 ( 25371 ).
    
    Intelsat data on Intelsat 805

    And on Galaxy 11

    At the top of both data files it says
    
    Spacecraft: Intelsat G-11 at 304.50 deg E / 55.50 deg W
    Prediction start epoch: 2011/08/18 00:00:00.000
    Prediction end epoch  : 2011/09/01 00:00:00.000
    
    Spacecraft: Intelsat IS-805 at 304.50 deg E / 55.50 deg W
    Prediction start epoch: 2011/08/18 00:00:00.000
    Prediction end epoch  : 2011/09/01 00:00:00.000
    
    So according to intelsat data, Galaxy 11 is no longer drifting from what I see.
