Thank you very much to Max White who suggested the very credible "Terminal Impact Prediction System" for the particular "TIPS" I was asking about. Interestingly, perhaps, is that Google comes up with nothing at all for that four-word phrase. (Of course, it will sometime after I send this message.) Thank you very much to Mike McCants, who pointed out to me that they have had "TIP" items on OIG. I just had not noticed that, and they don't seem to spell it out anywhere. There, as on Space-Track, it's related to decays, but I just was curious about what the acronym stands for. I wonder if some folks thought by "unrelated" I meant "off-topic". Apparently there was no SeeSat-L Digest 2005 #57. Ted said that he couldn't find one on the listserv archive (if I understood correctly). Digest #56 ends with http://www.satobs.org/seesat/Feb-2005/0110.html and Digest #58 begins with http://www.satobs.org/seesat/Feb-2005/0124.html In the online archive there are no messages 0116-0119 -- well, they're empty and not linked from the index page. I blame that sort of thing on cosmic rays. When was that monster explosion from 50,000 light-years away detected? Oh, that was Dec. 27; never mind. Our weather forecast is for clouds with chances of rain every day for the next seven days.
