Hi everyone With considering USSTRATCOM TLEs from epoch 11349.93297346 to 12002.90365258 and extrapolating I have obtained a graph (height of perigee above sphere versus time)by HEAVENSAT . if we suppose minimum altitude for satellite burning to start at elevations between 150 to 155 km above see level (like ROSAT satellite)decay time can be 13 JAN +-2 day. Really what is the minimum altitude for this satellite to start reentry? http://haftaseman.ir/images/phobos10.gif _______________________________________________ Seesat-l mailing list http://mailman.satobs.org/mailman/listinfo/seesat-l
