    The following pdf lists the most recent decay estimate from various sources, as of 2012 Jan 15 17:26 UTC.
    
    Includes updated decay estimates since the v13 compilation from: Aerospace, Molczan, Roscosmos

    The spreadsheet and data used to generate the pdf is here:
    
    http://satobs.org/seesat_ref/phsrm/Fobos-Grunt_decay_estimates_v14.xls
    
    The pdf and spreadsheet include four plots showing the evolution of the decay estimates over different time spans. The
    shortest provides better resolution of the numerous recent estimates. The wider ones reveal the long-term trend, at the
    expense of resolution.
