Someone just told me that Heavens-Above.com lists the Galileo 
IUS (20299 89-084C) as being in solar orbit, but it's not.  
They have a data error on this one.  The orbital elements are 
available from OIG.  This is from the January Satellite 
Situation Report:

20298 89-084B  GALILEO     US   10/18/89 HELIOCENTRIC ORBIT (S
20299 89-084C  IUS R/B(1)  US   10/18/89    135.1  34.1   16.1
20300 89-084D  IUS R/B(2)  US   10/18/89 HELIOCENTRIC ORBIT (S
