Launched from New Zealand last week on a 46 degree inclination, assigned NORAD ID 43163, Has that ID number been officially assigned anywhere specifically to Humanity Star? I have seen three different IDs from among the 6 objects released, each reported to be Humanity Star. Yet they all can't be correct. You have it as 43163. N2yo.com has it as 43166. Heavens-above.com has it as 43168. http://www.n2yo.com/satellite/?s=43166 http://www.heavens-above.com/satinfo.aspx?satid=43168 But I haven't seen anything from the Humanity Star staff confirming which one it is.
