Ken Prentice asked: "Anyone know if warnings are put > out to the shipping/sailing communities during any re-entering > sats?" I should think that only for special cases, like a large, controlled reentry, would a NOTAM be issued. Mir at the end of February will probably be such an instance. They don't for any others because there's no way to accurately predict the reentry location and disseminate that information fast enough to permit mariners to "clear the area". In most cases, reentry locations aren't determined until after the fact. --Rob ----------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe from SeeSat-L by sending a message with 'unsubscribe' in the SUBJECT to SeeSat-L-request@lists.satellite.eu.org http://www2.satellite.eu.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
