Or wherever would be the correct location.  This is from Alan 
Pickup's select.tle file:

Molniya 1-64                                     20184 x 92 km
1 15977U 85074A   00040.65654808  .01782425 -50777-5  27938-3 0   612

I'd kind of like to see a fair-sized object whose apogee is 
20000km pass through the zenith at a height of 92 km!  However, 
I suppose that it might not be very shiny by the time its 
perigee is that low....
